Archaeology Notes

NM75SW 9 717 519

(NM 717 519) Doire Leathan: Remains of 2 small houses. Period of occupation uncertain, but after 1755 and before 1841. No arable seen, and the site may latterly have been a shieling.

P Gaskell 1968

What may be one unroofed shieling-hut is depicted on the 1st edition of the OS 6-inch map (Argyllshire 1875, sheet lv), but it is not shown on the current edition of the OS 1:10000 map (1974).

Information from RCAHMS (SAH) 20 May 1998.
