Full Description
An archaeological assessment of the proposed route of the pipelines between Letterfearn and Ratagan, Ratagan and Ault a' Chruinn, and Ardelve and Sallachy was undertaken by C Dagg in 2000.
This building and enclosure are attached to the southern end of the head dyke of the manse area and probably associated with further enclosing dykes further up the hill joining the Manse with Ard an Eoin and suggesting that this whole strip was formerly enclosed and cultivated. This building now survives as footings only. <1>
NGR adjusted based on 1999-2001 vertical aerial photographs. Building not visible on Aps. <2>
