Hut Circles, Sithean.

About 70 yards east of the cairn at Sithean (No. 660), but at a slightly higher elevation, are the remains of two circular enclosures, 9 feet apart. The outer and inner facing stones of the foundation of the wall of both structures remain in position, showing the walls to have been some 5 feet thick, widening to 7 feet on each side of an entrance to the south, 2½ feet wide. The walls have probably been completed with turf which has disappeared. The internal diameter of-the circles is 31 feet.
