Two structures and an oval stony mound, possibly the remains of a small hut, lie on a SE facing terrace below Beul Lama Sgorr. The terrace is the uppermost of those that have been cultivated and bears traces of stony banks and lazy-beds, together with several small clearance cairns (NG20NE 109.05). The more northerly of the two structures lies at the back of the terrace amongst scree. It is subrectangular and measures 1.4m from NW to SE by 1m transversely within a wall defined by boulders. The second structure lies immediately to the SSW and comprises an oval arrangement of stones set on edge; it measures 1.9m from NNE to SSW by 1.1m and its function is unknown. The mound lies a further 10m to the S and measures 3.5m from ESE to WNW by 3m and 0.4m in height.
(Canna 731-3).
Visited by RCAHMS (ARG), 8 April 1995.
