Description

A rectilinear arrangement of stones and boulders on the foreshore at Loch Paible enclosing an area c.4m by 4m. Possibly the eroded remains of a structure from which the softer archaeological sediments have been eroded out leaving a 'ghost' of the original building.
The structure is convincing and appears more circular on the ground. It is of similar dimensions and form to 'roundhouse' 9410
