Full Description
"This wall runs for 920 metres along the north side of the crofts located on the north shore of Loch Seaforth Head, immediately outwith the modern wire croft fence. The remains of this wall are constructed of turf with a stone face and stand to a maximum 0.25 metres in height. This wall represents the head dyke of the earliest phase of crofting settlement on the north shore of Loch Seaforth Head dating to the 1830s-1840s." (Burgess 2004, 36-37)
