Full Description

NN61SE 35 1915 6415

An enclosure (NMRS MS 738/31 no.2), situated on a W-facing slope above the Allt Coire na Ba, was recorded during a pre-afforestation survey by AOC (Scotland Ltd). The enclosure is oval and measures 7.5m form E to W by 4.8m with drystone walls standing up to 1.3m in height at its W, or downhill, side but only 0.1m at the E, or uphill, end. The entrance is on the N. What may be a second similar structure lies immediately to the NW although it is too poorly preserved to be sure of its form.
