Two buildings and an enclosure are visible on aerial photographs (RCAHMSAP 1994) amongst a small stand of trees to the S of Essich. The 1st edition of the OS 6-inch map (Inverness-shire 1875, sheet xx) depicts one of the buildings, as roofed, and the enclosure. The same building is shown on the current edition of the OS 1:10000 map (1975) as roofless.
