Shieling

"A shieling (Scottish Gaelic: àirigh), also spelt sheiling, shealing and sheeling, is a hut, or collection of huts, once common in wild or lonely places in the hills and mountains of Scotland and northern England.

The word is also used for a mountain pasture for the grazing of cattle in summer, implying transhumance between there and a valley settlement in winter." - (en.wikipedia.org 28.12.2020)
