Full Description
Site of a small farmstead or croft is depicted on the 1st and 2nd edition OS maps as a single long building with attached enclosure. A horsemill is shown on the northeast side of the building on the 2nd edition map. The foundations are also visible on an aerial photograph taken in 1977. It is uncertain if anything is now visible on the surface. The site was visited by RCAHMS in 1999 but nothing was visible. Walkover survey by S Farrell in 2002 found no trace of this building which lay in an area of recent ploughing and tree planting.
