Field Visit (10 September 1997 - 10 September 1997)
The largely obscured footings of a turf-walled building survive above the S bank of the Abhainn Gaorsaic c100m W of the junction with the Allt Coire-lochain. The building is aligned E/W and is c4m by c2m over walls c0.4m wide and c0.2m high. This secluded location was not interpreted as being associated with a shieling area, though it might be a good position for a deer hide.
