40 Bornesketaig (better known as Beaton's Cottage), c.1880. Croft house, re-thatched with rushes and reconstructed internally for holiday accommodation by The National Trust for Scotland, 1999. A rare surviving example of traditional Skye dwelling, built along with three others (now ruinous) for the Gillies brothers and occupied until 1980. Contemporary thatched and cobbled byre, with remarkably complete stalls, drains and collection of old wooden-handled implements.
