ND34SW 491 ND 34368 42457

This farmstead (YARROWS04 692) is situated on the summit of a low ridge midway between Loch Sarclet to the NW and the sea to the SE. It comprises a range, measuring 18.2m from NW to SE by 4.9m transversely over walls reduced to grass-grown footings, and contains four compartments, though that at the SE end may be little more than an outshot. Of the other three compartments, the two central ones are connected by a doorway at the SW end of the shared partition wall, and the SE one also has an entrance in its NE side. A small quarry (YARROWS04 691), which measures 3.7m from NE to SW by 3.4m transversely and up to 1m in depth, is situated immediately S of the SE end of the range.
