Full Description
Unnamed circular yard shown.
OS 6-inch map, 1966.
Remains of a shepfold 12m in diameter within a wall 1.5m thick. Some 20m NE are the grassed-over footings of a building measuring 13m by 5m; abandoned in the 18th/19th century.
Visited by OS (JM) 14 August 1980.
Visited by the Assynt's Hidden Lives project in December 2009. Situated on a relatively flat area on the south side of the valley, south of River Ledbeg is an area of stone spread. This is potentially the remains of a building although virtually nothing remains. <1>
