A peaty topsoil, with frequent inclusions of animal bonesand white quartz pebbles overlaid a buried soil that itself overlaid therubble collapse of a 1.1 m long linear stone revetted wall that joined asmall 0.80 m diameter circular stone revetted feature. The fill of thecircular revetted feature comprised soft, brown, fibrous peat withfrequent inclusions of large horizontal stones (rubble collapse), somesmall white quartz pebbles and bone. Both the circular revetted featureand the linear revetted wall, 0.2-0.4 m high, filled the same foundationtrench that cut through a deposit of soft, reddish brown silty sand withfrequent inclusions of orangey ash, 0.07-15 m deep. This overlaynatural subsoil comprising soft silver grey sand.440 HANGLAM AOC NF 7187 6831 Non-designated SLIPWAY 18th-20th C Fair Monitor Two lines of small boulders were evident on the north side of thechannel between Loch Paible and the sea. These measured between 4.5and 7.5 m long and defined a V enclosing an area 6.6 m wide at itsgreatest point.441 HANGLAM Fieldwalking NF 71909 68343 Non-designated FINDSPOT Unknown Eroding Monitor A portion of a deer head with the antler base still attached wasuncovered within a layer of peat on the shore of the channel leading outof Loch Phaibeil, close to the dune interface.442 HANGLAM Fieldwalking NF 71991 68309 Non-designated CIRCULARSTRUCTURE(POSSIBLE)3rd-1stMillenniumBCEroding Survey A possible circular structure was record to the E of site 438. It consistsof a circular irregular spread of stone around a lump of peat.443 HANGLAM Fieldwalking NF 71991 68309 Non-designated FINDSPOT Unknown Eroding Monitor The lump of peat within structure 441 yielded two pieces of pottery anda fragment of worked bone. These finds were located above the levelof the circular structure and are therefore not necessarily associatedwith that structure.444 NORTH UIST, LOCHPAIBLE, DUNSTEINGARRY; CUITHESTEILLIGARRYNF76NW 2 NMRS NF 7198 6838 Non-designated DUN (POSSIBLE) Unknown Eroding Monitor Dun Steingarry (also known as Cuithe Steilligarry stood at the SWcorner of Loch Paible, its site being traceable as a symmetrical flatknoll with practically no remains of walls. It evidently occupied an isletin shallow water before the loch was drained, before 1793. 1911.There is no trace of antiquity on the knoll at NF 7198 6838, the onlyknoll in the area. Although the name 'Steingarry' is known locally it isapplied loosely to the rocks around Hanglam (NF 762 681). 1965. Notrace of a dun could be found at this location though there were anumber of larger boulders on the beach. It is possible that there couldbe remains beneath the surface.445 ROSAMOL OS 1st ed. NF 71891 69507 Non-designated BUILDING 18th-20th C Poor Nil A roofed building is depicted on the 1st edition OS map. A ruinousblackhouse was recorded at this location. It survives to a height ofc.0.7m or up to four courses. The walls are c.1m thick and there issome evidence of collapse with the building.446 PAIBLESGARRY OS 1st ed.

It measuredc.0.6m high and 0.8m wide.447 PAIBLESGARRY OS 1st ed.
