Just beyond a modem boundary fence, which lies between modem houses and the foot of a steep west facing slope, are the very degraded ruins of a stone built house and byre.
The remains which are in a disturbed and overgrown condition consist of:-
a) A house which measures 8.0m north to south by 4.5m east to west over tumbled walls 1.1m thick. It is impossible to tell if the walls are square or round cornered. There is no obvious door opening.
Immediately to the south :-
b) A very degraded structure measuring approximately 5.0m by 4.5m over walls of unknown width.
A very badly degraded site that is being used as a refuse dump and play area for local children.
