Full Description

NG 353 331 On the W side of the Ardtreck Burn at about 550-600 feet above sea-level, is a group of about 29 ruined shielings, presumably Airidh Samhraidh. (Visible on RAF air photographs CPE/Scot/UK/175: 2011-12)
They are of single and twin-cell type with some of the latter type well-preserved at the SE end of the group, but deteriorating in condition north-westwards until reduced to shapeless mounds.
Visited by OS (A S P) 1 June 1961.
