Full Description

Situated amongst massive boulder scree which lies at the foot of the cliffs of Creag na Bruaich, at about 275m OD is a turf and stone enclosure. Short lengths of dyke connect large boulders to form the enclosure. A single celled building lies within the enclosure, on a small constructed platform. Two small rock shelters have been constructed within the enclosure by walling off overhangs of large boulders.
