Full Description
E 365:
This wall is enclosing a small downslope-area, using stone outcrops at both ends. It is describing an arc running roughly south-east for 20 metres and the stones, of which it is made, are mostly covered with turf and long grass. It is situated below and parallel a cliff, very near the coastline (Sloc a' Mhaide).
Interpretation: The area enclosed by the wall on one side and by the cliff on the other, could have been a shelter for a boat or fishing equipment as it is situated very near to the sea.
