Visited by RCAHMS (DCC) 8 June 1994.

These structures were not spotted due to the height and density of the brack during the National Trust for Scotlands DBA and survey in 1998, but the description from the RCAHMS 1994 survey is given.
Major threat from the bracken was identified and it was noted that the site would benefit from a bracken control programme. Photography every five years was also recommended. <1>
