There are shieling groups on either side of a field-dyke linking the Allt Lag Sleitir and the Abhainn Rangail. The N group comprises three huts with attached cells, and two detached cells; the S group contains one rectangular hut with the entrance at the junction of the long and short side, an oval hut, a subrectangular hut with opposed entrances, and an unusual rectangular hut (5.4m by 1.6m internally) with opposed entrances.
