On the mid-slope below Creag Sneosdal and immediately E of the Abhainn Sneosdal's descent from the crags are two stone-built cell-structures. That to the E is a mound with an E-W length of 7m and containing two circular depressions, with an entrance at its north-western side which gives access to an area 3.3m in length N-S. Two narrow passages from this main area lead eastwards, each into a small circular cell with an internal diameter of c 1.6m. To the W of this structure and at a slightly higher elevation is a small circular structure 1.3m in diameter.
