A farmstead, comprising two unroofed buildings is depicted on the 1st edition of the OS 6-inch map (Inverness-shire 1875, sheet xviii), but it is not shown on the current edition of the OS 1:10000 map (1975).

Information from RCAHMS (AKK) 17 May 1996.

A farmstead, comprising two buildings and a kiln-barn, situated on the E of an unnamed burn, were noted during a pre-afforestation survey of Eskadale Moor. The SE building is heather-covered and measures c.18m from NE to SW by c.4m overall with walls c.0.7m wide and c.0.2m high. The NE building is set at a right-angle to the first structure. It measures c.13m in length by c.4m with heather-covered walls c.0.7m wide and 0.2m high. The kiln-barn lies immediately SE of the first structure and measures 9m by 3m overall. The stone-lined kiln bowl is at least 1m deep. A field-system, generally as depicted on the current edition of the OS 1:10000 map (1975), extends off to the N and E.
