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.
Just below the main road from Fasag to Alligin to the E of the Alit Druim na h-Uamhaidh is a c40m stretch of turf & stone dyke. It is up to elm high on the downhill (S) side and is spread to elm. No trace of it can be seen north of the road. It probably formed part of a small enclosure. <1>
