well preserved circular enclosure with interior
diameter of 35' and banks of stone and turf about
5'.6" high & 8' across base. The entrance from NE [North East], facing down the
glen, is 3'.6" wide. The entrance is protected at 6' distance by
a mound 24' long, 21' across base and 5'- 6'
high on low side. A number of small cairns
lie around. (Photo.) Adjacent to it on the

a kiln.
Across the burn on either side of the road from
Kildonan to Loth and some 3 to 400 yds. [yards] from the
burn is a large group of small cairns. Towards
the centre of the group are three adjacent

N and S. [North and South] measuring 26' x 18' and about the
same height as the last. Another 25' further
W. [West] lies the third measuring 20' in diameter
and about 5' in height. They are all over:
:grown with heather. To the S. [South] of the
