Archaeology Notes

NM80SW 56 8273 0406

What may be a farmstead comprising one unroofed building of two compartments is depicted on the 1st edition of the OS 6-inch map (Argyllshire 1875, sheet cxxxviii), but it is not shown on the current edition of the OS 1:10000 map (1974).

There is an internal dividing wall, separating the structure into two rooms of unequal size. An enclosure, 8m wide and 12m long, abuts the east side of the structure.
