The grass-grown footings of two rectangular buildings and an enclosure are situated on terraces to the E of the Allt a' Chaorainn. The N building (KING95 401), which measures 10.3m from E to W by 4.4m internally, is situated at the N end of an enclosure which takes in the rest of the terrace. The E end of this building is depicted as roofed on the 1st edition of the OS 6-inch map (Inverness-shire 1872, sheet ci). The second building (KING95 402) has been reduced to little more than a platform levelled into the slope and measures 7.7m from NNE to SSW by 3.3m transversely overall.
