Full Description

The general area comprises the outwash of the Allt a'Choire Dhuibh and lies some 100m to the NW of the present day car park and was recorded by NOSAS in 2007 as part of the Scotland's Rural Past Project. The ground is SE facing, very stony and potentially once a prime source of building stone. The site consists of a small building by a length of stone wall.

On the W side of the stone wall at NH 22545 51999 are the footings of a small sub-circular structure (Nosas Site Survey No.889) on a slight knoll. It is defined by a discrete stone scatter, 4m in diameter, with a heap of stones 0.5m in height on the E side. <1>

Note; The structure is on the east side of the stone wall. TB 10/8/17
