A platform, measuring 8m in diameter, was recorded on the S-facing slope overlooking the Allt Saigh during a pre-afforestation survey by Wordsworth Archaeological Services (NMRS MS 961/25, no.4). Although poorly defined, the platform has stone revetting around its S edge and may be the remains of a prehistoric roundhouse or later structure.
