Activities

Field Visit (11 July 2010)

This cleit, which lies in an isolated position on the slope about 80m SE of the main concentration of cleits, has been heavily robbed. It measures 3.2m from N to S by 2.4m transversely overall, but the line of the wall can be seen only on the W and around the S end. The entrance was probably in the uphill end on the N.
