Field Visit (3 June 1997)

NN80SE 5 8516 0003

The footings of three shieling-huts and an enclosure are situated on a terrace on the shoulder of the hill to the W of the Second Inchna Burn. The huts range from 1.6m by 1.2m to 4m by 2.5m within boulder- (MENS97 113) or turf-and-stone (MENS97 114-5) footings. The smallest structure (MENS97 113) may have been a twinning pen. A rough boulder wall has been built against part of the rock outcrop along the back of the terrace forming a small enclosure.
