Archaeology Notes

NG88SE 58 8604 8181

This fish trap comprises a band of rubble extending out into the bay from the shore at Inverewe. It measures some 70m into the bay by at least 135m. The SE side is very straight by comparison with the broader and less regular line of the rest of the rubble band.
