Full Description

The footings of a stone dyke, near Upper Diabaig, were seen during a walkover survey by C Dagg in advance of a Woodland Grant Scheme project in 2000. It could be followed mostly as low and irregular stone footings but disappeared into the low boggy ground at its southwest end. It probably continued to join the enclosure dykes at the north end of the township of Upper Diabaig. <1>
