Archaeology Notes

NS27SE 48 264 727.

Close to the Roman road at the NE corner of Loch Thom is a round house 12.19m by 11.89m. Wave action has exposed possible threshold slabs on the SE side and a line of inner kerbing can be seen. Some 10.5m to the E a disturbed circular arrangement of boulders may indicated the wall of a second house.
