Field Visit (21 July 2017)
NN 12044 91230 – NN 12746 92794 A walkover survey of the proposed site for a hydro-electric scheme was undertaken on 21 July 2017. Four sites were recorded at Mhuic: a large sheep fold with several internal partitions and the remains of 2–3 structures. These represent the remains of buildings and enclosures shown on 1st Edition OS mapping on the W side of the Allt Mhuic. Dense vegetation caused difficulty in recording the sites, which had suffered some damage during recent electricity line upgrades.
