Activities

Field Visit (27 August 2014)

NL 94471 44634 19th century single-storey cottage, listed as being thatched. The building, however, is now in a ruinous condition and no thatch remains. It has been on the Buildings at Risk (BAR) Register since 2009 (BAR reference number 3876) with inspection notes from this time stating the roof had already collapsed. The building is entry number 9 in the Argyll & Bute District Council Thatched Building Survey of Mull, Coll & Tiree (1985) where it is noted as having been derelict for many years with the roof being in an advanced stage of decay. The listing description should be updated accordingly.
