Archaeology Notes

NC73NW 5 7395 3658.

At NC 7395 3658 on level ground beside the east shore of Loch Rimsdale is a heather-covered hut circle. It is about 10.0m in diameter within a wall spread to 2.0m. The wall is generally 0.3m high but rises to 0.7m at the W side of the entrance in the S. A portal stone, with one fallen opposite, flanks the west side of the entrance.

One or two clearance heaps exposed in the ploughed land immediately to the E are the only signs of contemporary cultivation.

Surveyed at 1:10,000.

Visited by OS (J B) 10 May 1977.
