Monument record 10092 - LSFH 3 Loch Oigheabhat

"This small utilised natural island is located 40 metres from the east shore of Loch Oigheabhat. It measures 15 metres north to south and 10 metres west to east and stands a maximum of 3 metres above the loch surface. While some natural bedrock can be seen at its southern end much of its shore seems to have been reinforced with deliberately built up rubble. A thin soil has developed on the interior of the island and is supporting the growth of a number of small trees and bushes. A submerged causeway runs from the east shore of the loch, consisting of natural boulders apparently augmented with more deliberately placed rocks. The causeway is too fragmentary to cross and no access was gained to the site. This island appears on the current (and earlier) Ordnance Survey maps." (Burgess 2004, 17-18)
