On a bracken-grown S-facing terrace there is a farmstead comprising a rectangular building and an enclosure. The building measures 9.1m from E to W by 3.8m transversely within faced rubble walls 0.7m in thickness by 1.2m in height. There is an entrance on the S. The enclosure, which lies to the W, is constructed of drystone-rubble, and measures about 45m from N to S by 30m transversely, and its N wall incorporates an outcrop of rock bearing the cupmarks described under NH4SW ). The building is depicted roofed on the 1st edition of the OS 6-inch map (Inverness-shire 1876, sheet xxviii) and the S half of the enclosure is also shown, with additional compartments on its W side and annotated 'Sheepfold'.
