Full Description
This site was visited and photographed by R Spencer-Jones of NOSAS on the 7th of May 2014. He described the site as:
"On the south facing slopes at the western end of Loch Mullardoch, above the dwelling at Gobh-alltan is a kiln built into the southern aspect of a small knoll. The bowl of the kiln, 3-4m diameter, is lined with stone and is well preserved. There is a sill at the bottom of the southern wall, probably representing the outlet of the kiln." <1>
