Full Description

NH37SE 1 3640 7023

NH 365 702 Above the Ullapool road on a small glacial hill some 350m W of the road bridge over Feith Bhaithe is a turf enclosure wall. This surrounds the hill except for the N side where quarrying has recently occurred. On the E-facing slope are turf footings measuring 6m by 3m. On the summit there is a large pit which may be the result of subsidence.
