NF 82660 55447 The building was not visited as part of the survey due to the grid reference being held by Canmore and Historic Environment Scotland (HES) being incorrect, both referring to a site north of Kyles Flodda (grid reference NF 82701 56203). There is, however, a derelict thatched cottage that is not listed, located close to where Canmore and HES identified (grid reference NF 82813 56215), which is currently on the Buildings at Risk Register (BAR Reference Number 4781).

The condition of the thatch should be clarified and the grid reference for the building should be updated accordingly. [...] |
