Scope and Content Listed building description reads '19th century cotage traditional single storey 3 bay cottage: limewashed rubble: thatched piended roof'. Access to this building was not possible when visiting Tiree, however, no thatch could be seen from the main road nearby or from web-based satellite imagery. The building has been on the Buildings at Risk (BAR) register since 2009 (BAR reference number 3891). The report from the last BAR inspection in 2012 reads ‘the external walls and both chimney stacks survive but the thatch roof has collapsed filling the interior. The walls remain largely intact but the walls of the adjacent buildings are ruinous’, confirming that no thatch remains.
