Full Description

NH58SW 1 5384 8224

The cottage that stands at the foot of Garbhan Mor, which was still roofed in 1968, probably overlies the westerly of the two unroofed buildings depicted at this location on the first edition of the OS 6"map (Ross-shire 1881,39). The cottage measures 12m by 6.4m overall and still stands over 2m high, but the outshot at the WSW end may belong to the earlier building. Immediately ENE of the cottage there are traces of what is presumably the easterly of the buildings depicted on the first edition OS 6"map. It has been set into a quarry scoop and measures at least 10.8m by 5.5m overall; what may be a second compartment some 6m in length is visible at the NE end.
Visited by RCAHMS (SPH) 15 November 1989.
