Archaeology Notes

NN64SE 61 66318 40537

This subrectangular structure, set into the bottom of a secluded burn gully to the NE of Meall Odhar, may be the site of an illicit still. It measures 3.7m from NW to SE by 2.8m within walls reduced everywhere except on the SW to stony banks 0.8m in thickness. On the SW the wall comprises a 1m-high stone revetment against the base of the gully. The position of the entrance is not clear, though it was probably on the NE side, facing the burn, and there is a hollow in the centre of the interior.
