Noted during walkover survey. Recorded as a building, visible as overgrown grassy footings and located on a knoll overlooking the mouth of the river. It is aligned N-S and measures approximately12m in length. There is no associated arable ground here, and the siting of the building at the mouth of the river possibly signifies a function connected with boat transport down the loch. <1>
