What may be a farmstead comprising an unroofed long building at the head of a croft is depicted on the 1st edition of the OS 6-inch map (Ross-shire and Cromartyshire 1881, sheet lxxvi), but it is not shown on the current edition of the OS 1:10560 map (1969).
Information from RCAMHS (SAH) 1 March 1996
NH 5035 6061 (roundhouse); NH 50 61 (centre) An examination of a proposed new water mains at Docharty, near Dingwall, revealed a possible roundhouse defined by a fragmentary circle of boulders forming an oval 15m NW-SE by 12m NE-SW. The footings of six croft houses dating to the early 19th century were also noted adjacent to the pipeline route.
A more detailed report has been lodged with Highland SMR.
