NMRS Report: (16/04/2003)
NN16SW 39 1183 6124

NN 1183 6124 The public right of way through the settlement is a well-engineered road c 3m wide. Most of the burns are crossed by fords, retained by massive stones, but the Allt Geal was bridged at NN 1179 6130, but only the abutments remain. An old track passes a corn kiln at NN 1178 6128 and continues through the settlement to the E. Substantial byre dwellings occur at NN 1182 6123 and NN 1205 6125. There is a small area of narrow lazybeds (c 1.2m) below the waterfall at NN 1259 6146. Oak has been planted and managed on a coppice rotation and the holly appears to have been cut and used for winter fodder. Recessed platforms occur at NN 1274 6151 and NN 1287 6158, and others probably lay concealed by rank bracken.
