The remains of an old drystone dyke were recorded here during a detailed archaeological survey of Strathmashie Community Forest near Laggan, Highland. The dyke runs for over 320m and is collapsed in many places and overgrown with trees and grass. 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.
