Full Description
A possible hut circle at Bonar Bridge. It is visible in SEPA LiDAR data in the corner of a field in rough ground and as a vague earthwork in vertical aerial photographs taken in 2009. The OS 1st Edition 6 inch map shows an oval patch of rough ground precisely at this location. It appears as a roughly circular feature with its northwest arc missing measuring c.13m in diameter. <1> <2>
