Nothing is visible of this farmstead, which stood in what is now a field of improved pasture 230m WNW of Stonecroft. Depicted roofed on the 1st edition of the OS map (Caithness 1876, sheet xxx), it was L-shaped on plan, forming the E and S sides of a garden. The farmstead was abandoned in the late 19th century and is shown unroofed on the 2nd edition of the map (1907, sheet xxx).
