Full Description

At the top of a small dry gully leading to the beach is an oval hollow and what may be a dam. The gully may be a seasonal or former watercourse and the dam and hollow a means of collecting water, possibly for livestock as there appear to be few sources of water on the croft. (Photos 41-43). <1>
