NC 253 142. Faint traces of horizontal mill of Ledbeg documented in early 18th century at cleared settlement of Riancreich.
M Bangor-Jones 1998.

Visited by the Assynt's Hidden Lives project in December 2009. Situated on flat land at the bottom of the valley, overlying a stream which adjoins River Ledbeg is a line of rubble 1m long, covered in earth and overgrown by heather. In the stream is a small stone pile. Together these features were tentatively identified as the remains of the horizontal mill. <1>
