Full Description
NN07SW 2 005 703.
Three miles N of Ardgour on the W shore of Loch Linnhe, Cona Glen runs westwards for 16 miles nearly reaching to the shores of Loch Sheil. On the northern side of the glen over 100 recessed platforms have been recorded. These are cut into an area stretching for over a mile starting about a mile from the shore of Loch Linnhe. They lie between the 50m and the 250m contour in both oak woodland and on bare hillside. Neither the range of size nor the type of construction has been recorded.
