Full Description
Field system marked by stone clearance heaps and a few ill-defined lynchets.
Visited by OS (A A) 11 April 1973
On a S-facing terrace below Cnoc Croit na Maoile is a large hut circle, a small enclosure and an extensive field system. The hut circle measures 14.0m in diameter within walling up to 1.5m wide, although much of the eastern half is obscured by peat. 10m to the SW is a small circular stone walled enclosure. It has a rubble 'wall' 1.0m wide enclosing an area of 2.5m. The field system covering an area of about 6ha, consists of well defined clearance cairns, some arranged in lines, others joined by stone banks.
