200 yds. [yards] back from the loch and 50’ from
the wall of the plantation surrounded by rather
wet ground is a small hut circle with an
interior diameter of 12’, having a small
segmental recess with an ?chord of about 5’ opening
off the interior on the S. [South]. The wall, which is
reduced to a trifling height, is 3’.6” in thickness
The entrance has been from the W. [West] but its details
are indistinct. Some 300 yds. [yards] NNW. [North North West] of the
spot where the plantation wall runs into the
loch on the N. [North] are the ruins of a small
circular hut which has been entered, ap:
:parently from the N. [North] and has measured
interiorly 5’ or 6’.
This has been a very hot day. The remains
of Barnsallie Fell noted on the O.S. [Ordnance Survey] are of
very trifling importance and in the North could
have been barely worth notice where similar
remains occur in great abundance.

11th May 1911
Took the motor for the day and set
off to the S. [South] of Glen Luce. Very warm.

Old Luce. Challochmunn Cairn (34)
Some 200 yds. [yards] S. [South] of the farm of Challochmunn
in a grass park by the side of the Port William
road is a mound on the top of which much
small gathered stone has been heaped. It has a dia. [diameter] of
about 30’ and is marked as a cairn on the O.S. [Ordnance Survey].
