Full Description

"Situated on the eastern slopes of Aird Fhalasgair above its eastern shore this area of feannagan cultivation runs down the slope for 70 metres and covers an area of 150 metres from north to south. This area was heavily overgrown with bracken at the time of the survey and as a result the exact extent of the field system was impossible to define." (Burgess 2004, 154)
