Presumably the former abode of those that used the chambered cairns, there’s quite a bit of archaeology still to be seen here.

05/08/2016 – Between the chambered cairns of Craig A’ Bhlair and Carn Liath are these great hut circles and field system. I don’t normally add these but I do like the circleyness of hut circles and the one at NH 7377 9968 is very fine indeed. Inner face of the wall is visible and the surrounding field system can be made out. Nice place.
