Archaeology Notes

There is an area of abandoned peat cuttings on the NW-facing upper slopes of Meall an Doire, the most obvious covering an area about 80m square. Whether these were the cuttings for dwellings on the south side of the estate rather than the abandoned settlements on the north side, which are some considerable distance away, is not known.
