There are at least eleven shieling-huts on the haughland around the confluence of the Allt a'Choire Ghlais and the Allt Gad Ruigh Mhothain and a further two huts lie some 40m N of the ford on the Allt a' Choire Ghlais. Three have two compartments, some are mounted, and all are predominantly earthen, with only intermittent stone facing.
