Architecture Notes

HP50SW 52 5342 0362

A stone-walled dwelling and a long stone-walled byre, arranged in a row, have been recorded on oblique aerial photographs (RCAHMSAP 2003). The N part of the farmhouse is depicted as roofed on the 1st edition of the OS 6-inch map (Orkney & Shetland (Shetland ) 1881, sheet vii), and the S extension appears on the 2nd edition of the OS 6-inch map (Orkney & Shetland (Shetland) 1900, sheet vii) with a small building to the S.
