Three turf-built shieling-huts and a small enclosure, situated on a E-facing slope overlooking Loch Linnhe, were recorded during a pre-afforestation survey at Camusnagaul and Achaphubuil. The largest structure measures 4.5m by 3m and the others measure 2.5m by 2m and 2m by 2m respectively. The turf-banks of each structure are very low and spread.
The enclosure lies about 15m to the NW up against a low rock outcrop. Roughly circular on plan, it measures 5m in diameter with a low stony bank forming the eastern part.
