Full Description

NM56SE 15 Centred on NM 588 624

In 1875 the settlement at Glenbeg was shown centred to the SE of the modern settlement. Four buildings were roofed and seven unroofed, presumably abandoned. This has been a desk assessment area.
J Wordsworth, SSSIs, Scottish Natural Heritage, 1993

A township comprising four roofed buildings and nine unroofed buildings, two enclosures, one of which is incomplete, a sheepfold, some field walls and what may be two phases of head-dyke is depicted on the first edition of the OS 6-inch map (Argyllshire 1875, sheet xxv). Six roofed buildings, three unroofed buildings, several enclosures and the fragmentary remains of the head-dyke are shown on the current edition of the OS 1:10,000 map (1974).
