NG53NE 146 5599 3517
On a level, heather covered area overlooking Suisnish to the W and S is a raised circular turf bank between 0.7m and 0.9m wide and 0.4m high with occasional stones visible. It was recorded here during a field survey of the Suisnish area of Raasay by ACFA, who have conducted surveys on the island every year since 1995. The bank encloses an area 10m in diameter. There are two breaks in the circle, one in the NE sector and one in the SW sector, either of which could be the entrance.
