Activities

Field Visit (10 September 1997 - 10 September 1997)

A boulder and turf dyke curves sinuously N from cliffs on the lower slopes of Beinn Bhuidhe towards the Allt Choinneachain. It is spread to c1.2m wide and survives up to 0.5m high. The stretch S of the path up the glen is shown on the 1971 OS map but not the portion to the N which is less well preserved, being constructed more of turf/earth than stone. No wall was shown on the 1st or 2nd edition OS maps.

Information from NTS: KIN147 (JH and JW) 10th September 1997
