NH70SW 10.02 7075 0162

There are the remains of a series of field-banks and faint traces of rig on the terrace to the E of the Allt na Beinne. The narrow part of the terrace at the mouth of the deeply-incised valley has been enclosed by two banks, running across from the Allt na Beinne to an old channel which may once have joined the Allt na Beinne to the Allt na Loinne. Stretches of rig measuring between 3m and 5m across are visible in the dense bracken on both sides of the stream (NH 7075 0162, 7078 0158). Further rig is visible along the line of the track to the SE (NH 7100 0147), possibly extending across the terrace to the S where there is an earth-and-stone bank, which may have enclosed the rig. Two small cairns (NH 7079 0163, 7084 0165), measuring about 2m in diameter and 0.3m in height, are situated within the scatter of huts (NH70SW 10.01).
