(Location amended to NG 2521 0586). Four narrow rectangular structures, each defined by two parallel rows of boulders, lie on a boggy terrace on the S flank of Beinn Tighe. Three are situated on low peat-covered rises, while the other lies a short distance to the N amongst loose boulders at the foot of a long slope. The longest, which measures at least 19m from NE to SW by 1m internally, is not straight and its sides appear to be bowed towards the NW; a groove is visible down its centre and its NE end appears to have been robbed. These structures lie in a gap between two stretches of orthostatic walling that run roughly from E to W, but there is no evidence to suggest that the walls were robbed to provide the boulders for the structures.
