A substantial turf-built dyke, possibly a head-dyke, running over the S-facing slope between the Allt Saigh and the Allt Ruighe Bhacain was recorded during a pre-afforestation survey by Wordsworth Archaeological Services (NMRS MS 961/25, no.3). The dyke has decayed to a spread 2m wide by up to 0.4m high.
