Full Description
no. 43
This is a rectilinear drystone structure built over by a relatively recent bothy. The structure has external dimensions of 5m north-south by 3.5m east-west within a wall width of c. 1m. A 1m wide break in the west facing wall at the south-west corner may represent an original entrance. A similar break, 0.9m wide, occurs in the east wall, 1.1m from the north-east corner. The southern half of the structure is filled with rubble while the northern half is occupied by the modern bothy.
