shepherd's house at Braegrudie is an ancient
[Margin] Unnoted
walled enclosure of about 1/2 an acre, with an
entrance from the S. [South]. On the W. [West] side of the
entrance is a small circular enclosure with a
diameter of some 12' and walls about 6' thick
opening onto the entrance and opposite at the
other extremity of the wall a smaller circle.
These walls do not present the appearance of
such great antiquity as others where similar
features are apparent.
