Archaeology Notes

NM56SW 36 5299 6243

A probable shieling hut was recorded here during a field survey of part of the Ardnamurchan Estate on the N shore of Loch Sunart, North Argyll. It was roughly built and almost circular in plan, measuring 5.6m x 5.2m. The remains are represented by roughly piled-up stones, 0.9m in width and up to 0.8m in height.
