A group of eight shieling-mounds is situated on the NE bank of an unnamed burn on the W flank of Beinn Chreagach, four in the gully of the burn and four on the terrace above. Generally oval in shape, they range from 7.5m to 10.5m in length and from 5m to 8m in breadth and stand up to 1.8m in height. Two have dished tops and there is a stony structure on one of them.
