Archaeology Notes

NG62SW 39 6100 2478

Situated about 60m to the SE of the junction of three burns which run off the NE flank of Beinn na Caillich are the remains of four stone- built shielings. Lying on a patch of green grass amongst heather at

170m OD, the shielings, of the one and two cell types, are now in a

very degraded condition.

Visited by M Wildgoose 4 April 1990.
