Monument record 14 - GEO CHRUBAIDH, ST KILDA

NA00SE 5 0790 0055.

At NA 07900055, situated on a natural terrace overlooking Glen Bay, are at least 4 hut circles, and other 'platforms' suggest the sites of others. The best defined hut consists of a course of stones - the remnant of a wall - around the perimeter of a slightly scooped platform, 4.0m in diameter.
20.0m E of this a cleit occupies the site of another, also 4.0m in diameter, slightly scooped into the hillside, and with a course of stones on the perimeter. 30.0m W of the first mentioned hut, is a slightly hollowed area, now waterlogged, with a ring of stones on the perimeter, 4.0m in diameter, which appears to be the remains of yet another hut; and some 30.0m SW of this is another scooped platform, 5.0m in diameter, which would appear without doubt to be another hut floor, although traces of a stone wall are lacking. Vestiges of an old boulder wall can be seen running E-W through the site of these huts. Entrances were not apparent in any of the huts.
