The remains of a disused estate boundary wall was recorded here during a detailed archaeological survey of Strathmashie Community Forest near Laggan, Highland. The survey was carried out to assess the evidence for past human use and to ascertain whether there was enough archaeology to develop a heritage trail in the forest. The boundary runs from the eastern bank of the River Mashie in a SE direction upslope for at least 500m.
