Note

What may be a single unroofed shieling-hut is depicted on the 1st edition of the OS 6-inch map (Island of Lewis, Ross-shire 1853, sheet 3). This site lies within a system of head-dykes (NB56SW 69) centred on NB 523 617. The shieling-hut is not shown on the current edition of the OS 1:10000 map (1992).
