Field Visit (14 May 2007)
At least four cleits stand on the ENE facing slope below the summit of Mullach Sgar to the ENE of the road leading to Ruaival. Of the cleits, three are all reduced to low grass grown stony mounds, and one is now roofless and in ruinous condition (Hirta 519). Immediately to its SSW, there is an L-shaped mound that may be the remains of another.
