A well-built and mostly well-preserved wall of coursed stone masonry was recorded here during a field survey of part of the Ardnamurchan Estate on the N shore of Loch Sunart, North Argyll. It runs along the base of cliffs to the settlement at NM56SW 6. The wall has a pronounced batter, narrowing from a width of 0.7m at the base to 0.5m at the top. The wall is 1.6m high and is constructed from rubble stone, with coping stones laid on end at the top. Parts of the wall havee collapsed, especially on the steeper sections.
