Full Description
C1 (NF680019) Heavily embedded stone structure, 3.6 x 2.9 m, on steep slope. The northern, downslope, wall was two/three stones wide, but other walls are marked by blocks laid flat or by large angular boulders. The walls were probably of turf on a stone foundation. Narrow door at south-east corner. Shieling hut.
