Loch Naver, hut circle 800m E of Dail a Thuraich is a prehistoric domestic structure located in Sutherland, northern Scotland. The site comprises a circular or sub-circular hut foundation, characteristic of Bronze Age or Iron Age settlement patterns in the Scottish Highlands. Such hut circles represent the domestic architecture of upland communities during the later prehistoric period, typically dating to somewhere within the later second or first millennium BCE, though precise dating for individual examples often remains uncertain without excavation. The monument's survival in the landscape provides evidence of prehistoric settlement distribution and building traditions in what is now marginal upland terrain.
