Full Description

B8 (NF673018) A much-robbed subrectangular enclosure, 20 x 12 m, marked out by large boulders and apparently anchored by a huge boulder at its north-east corner. It underlies a later wall system that is itself at least two removes from the croft boundaries of the early 20th century.
