On the N side of the public road along the shore at Badentarbat, there is a large rectangular sheepfold, now partly ruined. It is depicted on the 1st edition of the OS 6-inch map (Cromartyshire 1881, sheet iiia). An aerial photograph taken in 1951 shows additional pens around the N and W sides of the fold (visible on veertical air photograph RAF 540/506, frame 3368, flown 1951). These have now been removed but they were visible as parch marks in the summer of 1994.
