Complex earthworks in the stream valley probably served a small mill of the horizontal type.
Visited by R. G. Lamb, 1981
Field Visit (April 1981)
Complex earthworks in the stream valley. There is a leat
coming down higher up and remains of a stone-revetted dam
crossing the valley with a lean-to building (not itself a mill)
against its N side. The works probably served a small mill most
likely of horizontal type.
Information from Orkney SMR (RGL) Apr 81.
