This building stands at the edge of a pasture field above the cliffs overlooking the W end of Poll nam Partan. It measures 9.1m from N to S by 3.6m transversely within rubble walls up to 1.6m in height. The entrance is on the E, with a window to each side of it. The rear wall has been built against a rocky outcrop and there is an outshot extending from the N end of the building, to the N of which there is a curvilinear length of bank, possibly the remains of an enclosure.
This building is depicted as roofed on the 2nd edition of the OS 6-inch map (Isle of Eigg, Inverness-shire 1903, sheet lxxiii).
