Full Description

NH57NW 13 5117 7709 to 5154 7684

On the SE-facing slope of Meall nam Bo is a sinuous stone bank which runs across the contours into the valley of the Allt a'Ghleannain. It measures about 1.5m in thickness and 0.3m in height. The NW end is clear of vegetation, revealing that it is of drystone construction, and in places a ditch was noted along the E side. On the valley floor the bank appears to be less stony, perhaps reflecting the immediately available building material.
