Full Description
NG43SW 4 424 326 and 423 324.
At the confluence of two streams with the Allt na Guile, on the SW slopes of Broc-Bheinn between 600-650ft OD., there are about 16 shielings divided into two groups. (Visible on RAF air photographs CPE/Scot/UK/175: 2025-6)
The NE group, situated below a small waterfall at NG 424 326 comprises one single - one double - and one triple-cell example, all very well-preserved, and two ruined double-cell huts, now reduced to turf-covered mounds.
The SW group, centred at NG 423 324, is situated on both banks of a stream and comprises about 9 single- and double-cell huts in good condition with two out-liers on a slope about 100m to the N.
Visited by OS (A C) 11 June 1961.
