Full Description
"Situated between the high and low water marks on the north shore of Loch Seaforth Head, this drystone dyke shows signs of recent maintenance and measures 50 metres from north to south, 2 metres in width and up to 1.5 metres high. It is situated at the southern end of a modern fence boundary that demarcates the western edge of the Seaforth Head crofts, and is likely therefore to date to that period of activity in the vicinity." (Burgess 2004, 63-64)
