This remains of this smallholding, which comprise a building, two enclosures and cultivation remains, are situated in rough ground on the N side of a tributary into the Glenmore Burn, 125m NE of Achavoulaig Butt (NS07SW 23). The single drystone building is generally as described by previous authorities, with its entrance to the NW and a later pen in the N corner. There are turf walled enclosures to the NE and SW and cultivation remains to the SE. A Foulis estate map (1758-9) depicts a single building and a yard in this position, at the extreme S of the lands of Balnakailly farmstead (NS07SW 29). The building and yards are also depicted on Mackinlay's map of 1823.
