Field Visit (1 June 2012)
This modern concrete-built sheep-dip is situated on the S side of a former peat track leading E through moorland towards Loch Steaphain. It stands on the W side of an older drystone oval fold and overlies a thick field bank orientated NNW and SSE that forms part of an extensive system of enclosure that predates the mid-19th century.
