the bank are cairns and several hut circles
[Sketch inserted]
About 1/3 m. [mile] W. [West] of the Allt Breac are two
conjoined circular enclosures.
An outer circular
bank with diameter
of about 36' from
E to W. [East to West] and 38' from
N to S. [North to South] with an
entrance from the E [East]
< 5' wide
contains in the
interior a smaller
circular enclosure
springing from the SE [South East] side with a diameter
of 26' and bank about 5' thick. The bank
of the outer circle is about 6' thick except
on the N [North] side where it appears to be about
double that thickness and it is also 12'
thick on the S [South] side of the entrance. Both
banks abut at the E [East] on another circular
enclosure with a diameter of 27' a bank
5' thick and entrance from the E. [East]. This
circle flanks the entrance on its N. [North] side and
from its SE [South East] a horn projects across the
entrance to the main circle at about 8'
distant from its outer extremity.
