Field Visit (12 October 2002)
Below a rocky escarpment about 200m from the shoreline on the S coast of Eigg, there is a line of three huts and an area of rig cultivation partially enclosed by a field bank. The huts measure up to 2.7m in length by 2m in breadth within turf and stone walls up to 0.6m high. The cultivated area extends across moorland to the E of the huts, and amounts to about 1.5ha.
