Archaeology Notes

NM47NW 59 42639 79870

The footings of three huts are ranged in a rough line along the crest of ridge to the N of Cnoc an Fheur Lochain. The largest is situated on the N end of the ridge and measures 3.5m from ENE to WSW by 2.4m internally (Muck02 306). The footings of all the huts are predominately of turf, and a turf-stripping halo is visible around each of them, but one (Muck02 305) also appears to have had a stone footing beneath the turf wall.

(Muck02, 77, 305-6)
