Full Description

NH45NE 68 4994 5660

Situated on SW side of Loch Ussie and 18.5m ESE of a hut-circle (NH 45 NE 64), there are turf-covered remains of an oval-shaped burnt mound measuring 16m ENE-WSW by 11.5m and 1.2m in height. The mound lies on E side of a wide stream gully and whilst a pit in the top of mound is almost certainly modern, hollow on WNW may be the original feature.
Visited by RCAMS (JRS) 27 February 1989.
