Two boat nausts, situated just above the high water mark below Camasglas, were recorded during a pre-afforestation survey of Rahoy Estate. Set side by side, and open to the N facing Loch Sunart, each naust measures approximately 3m by 3m and 1m deep with traces of stonework around the edge.
About 8m to the W, a layer of charcoal is exposed in the low cliff section. The site may represent a collection point for the uplifting and 'export' of charcoal from the hillside.
