Archaeology Notes

HY64SE 62 66311 42273.

This medium-sized steading of open rectangular plan and incorporating an earlier house, was gutted and used as a store. The buildings have been much altered and added to, the whole being in agricultural use and in good order on the date of visit.

Visited by RCAHMS (GJD), October 1996; NMRS MS 744/129/5 (Scottish Farm Buildings Survey).
