Field Visit (10 December 2009)
A grassed over rectilinear stone walled enclosure with walls up to 1m wide is part of the Ardvreck Castle complex. It is aligned NW-SE and sits on the banks of the Loch Assynt and less than 100m north of Ardvreck Castle itself. The enclosure is thought to have been a walled garden.
