Lying immediately behind the high water mark at a height of 2 or 3m OD are the ruinous remains of two large rectangular houses. Both measure 10.0m N-S by 3.5m E-W internally with walls 0.7m wide, and with rounded corners. A well built stone wall which runs at right angles to the shore crosses over the top of both houses incorporating sections of their walls in its structure.
