Full Description
NC70NW 96.01 7264 0676
This peat-covered hut-circle (ROG95 50, NC 7264 0676) is situated immediately below the heather-covered crest of Cnoc an Uachdair and measures 10.5m in diameter within a stony bank spread to 1.8m in thickness and 0.3m in height. Two boulders line the outer end of the entrance passage, which is on the W.
Around the hut-circle, and extending down the crest and sides of the ridge to the SE, there is a scatter of small cairns (ROG95 933) measuring up to 4m in diameter and 0.4m in height. Fragmentary banks or linear clearance heaps lie amongst the cairns, which are separated from a further group of small cairns to the SE (NC70NW 96.02) by a boggy gully.
