Situated 30m E of the ring-cairn on the S flank of Torr Lochaidh (NO 16 SW 49) there is a complex of three Pitcarmick-type buildings defined by low, stony banks. The best-preserved is 22.5m in overall length and varies in width from 7.7m at the W end to 5m at the E end, which is slightly scooped; it has what may be opposed entrances, and attached to its SW corner there is a small D-shaped enclosure. It appears to overlie the second building, which lies immediately to the N and measures about 19m by 6m overall. The third building, which measures about 18.8m by 6.8m overall, is set end-on to the first, but the relationship between the two is unclear.
