Monument record 12529 - Hanglam

A semi-circular line of vertically set small boulders were evident with an open depression of sand near a top of a rise in the field immediately north of the inlet between Loch Phaibeil and the sea. This open depression appeared to be exacerbated by cattle and animal borrowing. The stones rose 0.3m high high above the sand and defined the western half of a circle 4m in diameter. The east half of the curvilinear course had been broken and eroded away, probably by cattle. A thick spread of limpet shells was evident immediately to the east of the course of stones.
