Full Description

What are probably the remains of a mill are situated at the seaward end of a gully 200m WSW of Lochbay House. The mill itself is little more than a rectangular space in a collection of large boulders, but its probable function is indicated by the lade that runs into it. The mill measures about 2.7m by 1.6m internally, and the lade can be traced for a distance of 60m back up the gully.
