Full Description

This farmstead, one of the crofts of Brae Stein, comprises a rectangular building and enclosure, which are terraced into the slope on the NE side of the track, connecting the crofts. The 1st edition of the Ordnance Survey map of 1880 (Island of Skye &c., Inverness-shire 1880, sheet xv), shows the building as roofed as well as depicting a smaller roofed structure a few metres to the SE, now gone. This farmstead was abandoned by the time of the 2nd edition of the Ordnance Survey map of 1904 (Island of Skye &c., Inverness-shire 1904, sheet xv). The building measures 7.7m from NW to SE by 3.8m transversely.
