Monument record 10253 - ECC 10 Eilean Chalium Cille

"Situated on the south side of the summit to the west of Creag Mhor, in the centre of Eilean Chalium Cille, the remains of this rectilinear structure measure 6 x 4 metres and are orientated from south-west to north-east. Constructed of stone faces with earthen cores the walls of this building stand no more than 0.5 metres tall and on the eastern side are obscured by tumbled stone. A possilbe entrance may be seen at the eastern end of the north wall. The size and location of this structure suggest that it is a large pre-crofting or crofting phase sheiling. The construction, however, may point to something more permanent, possibly the remains of a pre-crofting blackhouse." (Burgess 2004, 79)
