Full Description
Site of a croft depicted on the 1st and 2nd edition OS maps. The 1st edition shows a long range with a small building to the west. The smaller building had been removed by the time of the 2nd edition map. Site visit by Clyde Archaeology in March 2025 in connection with proposed overhead line refurbishment (NJ73SW0201) noted only a high and steep scarp on the south side which contains piles of stones on the slope and at the top. Some stone was evident below the low grass at the top of the slope but no obvious walls were identified.
