Full Description
The remains of this bothy are set into the raised beach on the NW side of Lag Na Saille. It measures 6m NNE-SSW by 3.5m transversely within faced-rubble walls 0.6m thick. Although both gables have collapsed, the walls survive to a height of 1.6m. There is an entrance and a window in the ESE side and a small light in the SSW end, low down by the SSW corner. Lazy-beds, each about 10m long, extend for about 80m to the NE, on the slope running down to the shore from the edge of the raised beach.
