Full Description
NF86SE 4 8889 6009 and 8899 6000.
(A - NF 8889 6009 : B - NF 8899 6000) Tumuli (NR)
OS 6"map, Inverness-shire, 2nd ed., (1903)
These two probable tumuli are capped by the remains of several shielings.
E Beveridge 1911.
These two partly grass-covered cairns are so greatly mutilated and robbed for the construction of shielings on and around them that accurate measurement is impracticable. The only recognisable features are several stones set on edge around their perimeters which may possibly be kerbstones.
Surveyed at 1/10,560.
Visited by OS (R D) 9 June 1965
