This enclosure (209) - NH 41835 54419 was recorded by NOSAS in 2007 as part of the Scotland's Rural Past Project. It lies immediately adjacent to and on the north bank of the Allt na Fainich in a sheltered position. Light birch and alder woods surround. A sub-square enclosure measuring roughly 30m x 30m is surrounded by a low turf wall 0.5 - 1m in height. It has a modern fence bisecting it obliquely.
