Full Description
A walkover survey and desk-based assessment for the National Trust estate at Torridon was carried out by J Wordsworth and J Harden between 1996 and 2002.
A c42m long stretch of turf & stone dyke was noted running approximately E/W across the head of a narrow gully that faces south. No continuation of this wall could be seen on either side of the gully so its function is unclear. It possibly linked with dyke TOR069 to the west. If so it may have been of turf construction which has been totally robbed for fuel. <1>
