Five small subrectangular to subcircular structures and the remains of two stone dykes, grouped around a marshy area some 400m to the SW of the township (NG55SE 2), were recorded during a pre-afforestation survey of Eilean Fladday. The structures measure up to 4m across and are defined by low stony banks up to 1m in width. Four of the structures and one dyke lie to the E of the marshy ground and the remaining structure and second dyke lie to the W.
