Full Description

NM 49188 90542
These two pens stand 20m apart against a bank forming the W side of a large enclosure just N of an unnamed burn at the N end of Struidh, on the NE coast of Eigg.
The pens are roughly constructed of boulders and measure internally 2.8m by 1m and 2.4m by 1.3m. The enclosure is roughly triangular, measuring about 80m by 80m. Two field clearance heaps lie within it and, while there are no visible cultivation rigs within it, there are traces of lazy beds immediately to the NW.
