A circular sheepfold is situated between the modern track and the Allt Coire an t-Seilich about 200m N of the shooting-lodge. It measures 24.3m in diameter within turf walls spread to 1.1m in width and 0.4m in height with an entrance on the NNE which gives access to the interior via a causeway through an internal ditch which was cut to provide turf for the construction. The SW side is poorly preserved in the wet peat.
