Monument record MHG12750 - Muie

NC60SE 19 6724 0495 and 6729 0494.

At NC 6724 0495 and NC 6729 0494, on a terrace high up in a SW-facing slope, are two vague platforms (A and B respectively), accompanied by a scatter of stone clearance heaps of a type commonly found in association with hut circles. All that remains of the platforms are the SW arcs of stone revetting 0.4m high forming a front apron, which measure 12.0m - 13.0m long with a chord depth of 3.0m - 4.0m. No back scarps can be seen, and no entrances are apparent.
Due to the limited nature of the remains caused in part by the build-up of peat, these features cannot be classified with any degree of certainty. They may be hut platforms associated with the nearby clearance heaps.

These two roughly circular platforms, probably the remains of hut-circles, are situated 50m apart on a SW-facing heather-covered hillside about 600m N of Muie. That to the W (ROG95 230) measures 12m NW to SE by 10m transversely and that to the E (ROG95 231) measures 13m in diameter. Around the front edge of each platform there is a stony revetment 0.4m high, while, to the rear both, platforms merge with the slope.There are small cairns on the terrace around the E platform, while the slope to the S has a 'smoothed' appearance suggesting that it was cultivated at one time. There are also more small cairns at the bottom of the slope.
