Field Visit (6 May 2009)
This cleit is situated on Sunadal, set on a grassy sloping shelf above a precipitous cliff on this steep escarpment dropping down on the E from the spine of Boreray. Now collapsed in on itself, it measures 4m from ENE to WSW by 0.9m internally and rises to a maximum height of 1.3m above the foot of the lower end on the WSW. The entrance is in the upper end on the ENE.
