The remains of this gabled building, probably a salmon-fishing bothy, stand just above the shore, immediately to the S of the mouth of the Allt a' Bhaid-choille. It measures 9.1m NW-SE by 3.5m transversely within faced-rubble walls 0.6m thick and up to 1.2m high. The entrance (now blocked) is in the SW side, there is a possible fireplace in the SE end wall and a window in the NW gable.
This building is depicted, roofed, on the 1st edition of the OS 6-inch map (Cromartyshire 1881, sheet iii) but it was roofless by the time of the 2nd edition (Ross and Cromarty 1906, sheet iii).
