Towards the head of a gully to the ENE of Creag an Fhithich, NW of Glac nan Sgadan, there are the remains of two buildings. The first, on the WNW, measures 8.9m from WNW to ESE by 3.8m transversely over stone wall-footings up to 1m in thickness and 0.3m in height. A drainage-trench extends the length of the WNW end-wall and the entrance is central to the NNE wall. On the ESE there is a slightly dished hollow (3.5m by 5.8m). The second building occupies a subordinate terrace to the E of the first (NG 8244 0880). It measures 6.1m from NE to SW by 3.7m transversely over severely wasted wall-footings 0.8m in thickness and 0.3m in height.
