The 1st edition of the OS 6-inch map (Argyllshire 1875, sheet c) depicts two ranges of roofed buildings at Ballimore, then described as 'a large modern farmsteading' (ONB 1875). The N range, which includes the farmhouse, is now derelict, but the S range remains in use.
In the farmyard, about 30m SW of the farmhouse at NN 0523 2576, there is a limekiln set into the bank of a burn. Its bowl, now choked with rubble and refuse, measures 2.5m in diameter within a wall 1.2m in thickness. The square draw-hole is on the SW, opening through a stone facade that stands up to 1.8m high. Behind the kiln, on the NE, there is a revetted loading platform.
