Shieling hamlets

Shieling hamlets were small, temporary settlements traditionally used by farmers and their families during the summer months for grazing livestock in higher altitude pastures. These settlements consisted of simple huts, often constructed from stone or turf, and were typically located near streams or along boundaries of grazing territories. They were a vital part of a seasonal transhumance system, where communities moved livestock to cooler, upland pastures during warmer periods.
