Full Description
Situated on a heather- and-grass-covered terrace to the S of the public road at Blairmore, there is a scatter of small cairns and what may be hut-circle. The hut-circle, which lies to one side of a spread of clearance material about 10m across, measures 4.5m in diameter within a bank faced with orthostatic boulders, 0.5m high and 0.7m thick. There are two gaps visible in the line of the wall, one on the NNW and the other on the SSE, which may be the result of disturbance, there being a litter of stones lying inside the hut. The small cairns extend over a level area of about 1ha around the hut-circle; they stand up to 0.4m in height by 4m in diameter.
