Full Description

On a spur between the Allt Bocaig and an unnamed tributary is a farmstead comprising at least two buildings, both with two compartments, the northernmost of which contains a small kiln. In the immediate vicinity of the buildings are two enclosures, fragmentary banks and a small patch of ridging. To the W, what may be a shieling-hut is situated on a slight terrace on the N side of the burn. There are also two small plots containing lazy-beds on the terrace.
