Upper Glen Rushen Shieling Mounds
Archaeology
A scattered group of fourteen shieling mounds is shown at this location on Gelling's distribution map. It is an accessible site, situated on the east side of the Glen Rushen river, immediately to the south of the bridge on the road from the Round Table to Dalby. A few mounds can be clearly seen from the road, and there are a number more which are further away and rather less conspicuous. Long parallel banks which represent the marks of cultivation can also be seen at this location.
