Full Description

On the N side of the valley of the Allt Forse a'Bhreitheimh are at least four buildings and a sheepfold, strung out along the 90m contour on the edge of a forest ride.

A further enclosure located on the maps (ibid) to the S has been destroyed by the forestry track. Vertical aerial photographs (Visible on RAF air photographs CPE/UK/175: 1735-6) show field banks
