Archaeology Notes

NG35NE 21 3780 5859.

What may be the remains of a cairn occupy a flat field N of Caisteal Uisdean. It lies off the shoreline and is built onto a bank of beach pebbles but is larger than these. It has been eroded by the sea in the S, but is about 15m in diameter and 0.9m in height.

Visited by M A Nicolson 14 May 1990.
