Activities

Field Visit (11 May 2007)

This group of fifteen cleits straddles the road leading up to the radar station on Mullach Mor. Only four remain roofed with fragments of turf cap, a further four retain at least one roof lintel, six are now completely roofless and in various stages of collapse, and the other has been reduced to a U-shaped grass-grown rim of stones.

(Hirta 629-42, 2057)
