Priomh-loch Beag NM 369 983 NM39NE
On the NE side of a small burn, 150m SSE of Priomh-loch Beag, there are the remains of four oval or subrectangular huts and two small subrectangular structures. The best preserved hut (2.8m by 2m within drystone walls up to 1m high) has an aumbry in each of its long walls, and the structure adjacent to it (1.4m across internally) retains a lintel-stone over its entrance.
