Two unroofed buildings are depicted on the 1st edition of the OS 6-inch map (Argyllshire, Island of Muck, 1880, sheet lxxiv), but they are not shown on the current edition of the OS 1:10000 map (1975).
Information from RCAHMS (SAH) 10 December 1996
The stone footings of a building are situated on a ledge in the lee of a rock outcrop above the NE shore of Port Mor. It measures 5.4m from NNW to SSE by 3m internally and is partly overgrown with nettles. In the NNW end of the interior, however, there is a green-painted corrugated iron hen house. This building is likely to be the western of two roofless building depicted on the 1st edition of the OS 6-inch map (Argyllshire, Isle of Muck, 1880, sheet lxxiv). The second building is likely to have been destroyed by the works for the new pier to the S.
