Full Description
Site of a croft that is depicted on the 1st edition OS map. It shows three rectangular buildings with an enclosure to the north. A modern L-shaped building has since been built a short distance away to the northwest. A watching brief was carried out in May 2008 by MAS over the excavations of foundations for the new building. At the east end of the site, the foundation tranches partially overlay the footprint of the demolished croft. No archaeology was observed in the foundations or in the levelled ground directly to the west of the foundations.
