Scope and Content A general view with two roundhouses and a few clearance cairns on the crest of a low ridge in the centre of the picture. Below and left of the lower roundhouse is a break in the rougher vegetation of the ridge. The shadows reveal the hollow through a burnt mound at the lower left of that more open ground. Together they are part of a bronze or iron age settlement scattered across a wide area. In the upper left on either side of a trackway the footings of the former township of Caolishie lie in the area of scattered trees.
