This building was roofed in 1875, as was another at NM 5776 6192 not currently shown. This has been a desk assessment area.

A roofed building is depicted on both the first edition of the OS 6-inch map (Argyllshire 1875, sheet xxv) and the current edition of the OS 1:10,000 map (1974). The building has an attached enclosure on the current map. The second building referred to above may be one of three recorded as NM56SE 13, at NM 5775 6190.
