Field Visit (11 May 2007)
This group of sixteen cleits is strung out along the brow of the steep grass slope between Claigeann an Tigh Faire and Claigeann Mor. Of the group, thirteen retain all or some of their roof lintels, several with fragments of turf cap, and three are now roofless and ruinous.
