Full Description

A possible hut circle to the east of the River Strathy. It is visible as a circular feature c.10m in diameter in vertical aerial photography taken between 2009 and 2023, with the latter showing the feature best. It appears to lie outside the southern end of a rougly triangular enclosure (see MHG64172), which may be later as its bank may either run through the possible hut circle or incorporate it, with vegetation growth making it difficult to tell either way. <1> <2>
