Archaeology Notes

NM56SW 27 5213 6297

A cave in the cliff above the beach at Camas Choire Mhuilinn was recorded here during a field survey of part of the Ardnamurchan Estate on the N shore of Loch Sunart, North Argyll. A stone wall, 10m long, 0.8m wide and 1.5m high, was built across the front at some point to enclose a rectangular chamber, 10m by 4m. The cave is known as Uamha na Creada.
