ND34SW 495 ND 31929 40656

Nothing is visible of this farmstead, which stood on a SE-facing terrace in what is now a field of pasture 55m SSW of The Lith. As depicted on both the 1st and 2nd editions of the OS 6-inch map (Caithness 1876, sheet xxix; 1907, sheet xxix), it comprised a single range measuring at least 27m in length from NNE to SSW. The 1st edition of the map depicts a garden immediately ESE of the range, but this is not shown on the later map.
