Srp Note (7 February 2011)
Bedford's Marine Chart (1861)shows a building here. Nearby are the words "Salmon Fishery" which suggests that this building was involved in this activity. The 1st edition of the OS 6-inch map (Argyllshire and Buteshire 1875, sheet xliii)map shows an unroofed building at this location. It cannot be detected in one of Erskine Beveridge's photographs of 1883 and had presumably fallen into disrepair by that time. Nothing is now visible and it stood in a field that was ploughed for many years.
