Monument record 3849 - CNOC DUBH

NB32NE 25 363 286

NB 363 286 There is a conical grassy mound 13m to 14m diameter at the base, about 2m high above the lowest surrounding ground.
It is surmounted by the remains of a shieling 2.15m by 4.0m internally with one doorway and a vertical stone 0.75m tall in the wall at its S end.
The mound is circular but it appears stoneless. The 'standing stone' suggests that there was a setting before the shieling was built.
It is located on the E side of a spur going in a SSW direction from Cnoc Dubh.
