Full Description

NB56SW 18 5300 6392

The remains of a hut-circle lie in pasture to the N of Lionel, S of a drainage ditch. Measuring some 10.0m in diameter, over the turf-residue of a wall, no entrance is evident.
Nearby are several stony mounds, typical of clearance often associated with hut-circles. Early modern rig-and-furrow cultivation can be seen to have cut the E arc of the hut-circle.
Surveyed at 1:2500 (plan NB5363)
Information from OS (Inverness), 7 November 1989.
