Archaeology Notes

NO39NE 42 3734 9732

(Name cited as Creag an Seabhaig). Esther Woodward has recorded a quarry workers' shelter on a steep S-facing slope in a coniferous plantation at an altitude of 290m OD. It measures about 2 by 1.5m and is built on a U-plan of granite blocks against a large boulder. [The NGR cited is said to be at an altitude of 290m OD, but appears at about 235m OD on the current map].

NMRS, MS/712/34.
