NO16SW 47 1388 6381 to 1391 6382.
1. NO 1388 6381 Situated on a W-facing slope on a low rise some 570m NW of Lair cottage, there are the remains of a hut-circle measuring 9.4m in diameter within a stony bank which is well-defined on the W and measures up to 1.7m in thickness and 0.2m in height. On the E the inner edge of the wall is defined by a low scarp but the stony bank appears to partially ride up the slope behind the scarp on the N and S. The position of the entrance is not apparent under deep heather.
2. NO 1391 6382 Situated 21m ENE of (1) and partially levelled into a S-facing slope, there are the remains of a hut-circle measuring 11.7m in diameter within a wall reduced to a stony bank measuring up to 1.5m in thickness and 0.1m in height. The entrance is ill-defined but on the SSE.
