Two unroofed buildings are depicted in an area of coniferous woodland on the 1st edition of the OS 6-inch map (Inverness-shire 1876, sheet cxxxiv), but they are not shown on the current edition of the OS 1:10000 map (1973).
Information from RCAHMS (SAH) 19 August 1996

These two buildings were recorded, within an existing plantation, during a pre-afforestation survey (NMRS MS 961/39, no.10). The E building measures 8m from NNW to SSE by 4m within drystone walls surviving up to 1m in height. The W building measures 10m from by 4m within drystone walls standing up to 2m in height. It has been altered to make structure, measuring 4m from N to S by 3m, and the roofed raised on a scantling structure to 1m to 1.5m above the walls. The presence of rusted oil drums suggests that this structure was used as a vehicle store.
There is a fragment of turf and stone dyke nearby, centred at NM 6432 8466 (NMRS MS 961/39, no.13).
