Only rock outcrop occurs at this site and there is no evidence to suggest that any artificial feature ever existed. The situation is not suitable for a broch. It seems probable that this is a mis-plotting of NC75NW 9. Visited by OS (J L D) 2 May 1960.
No change. Visited by OS (J B) 1 September 1977.
