An earth and stone bank, running over a low ridge on the S side of the Allt Loch Leathad nan Cruinneachd, was recorded during a pre-afforestation survey of Scourie and Badcall common grazings. The bank is spread up to 2.5m in width and up to 0.4m in height. It starts at the E side of a burn and can be traced for over 200m before fading out in marshy ground across the watercourse.
