On the east flank of Ben Scoval and west of the Allt a Chro at a height of 76m OD lies the ruinous remains of a stone-built long-house 16m by 10m overall. A door opening is visible in the south-west wall. A large oval enclosure lies to the south-west of the house, the dyke joining on to the end walls of the house. Rig cultivation lies within the enclosure.
A possible small circular kiln 5m in diameter lies to the north of the house.
