The remains of three buildings and an enclosure are situated on the steep SE flank of Creag Bhreac; they are described from NW to SE as they descend the slope.

1. NO 0820 6748 This building measures 8.2m ENE-WSW by 3.8m over rubble wall-footings 0.8m in thickness and 0.3m in height. There is an entrance in the S side and the W end appears to be overlain by a later pen.

2. NO 0821 6747 The second building measures 10.2m ENE-WSW by 4m over rubble wall-footings 1m in thickness and 0.3m in height. The N side has been levelled into the slope and there is an entrance in the S side.

3. NO 0821 6745 This structure is little more than a depression (0.6m deep) with revetted sides; it measures 5m ENE-WSW by 2.2m internally and there is an entrance at the SE corner.

4. NO 0824 6743 About 20m SE of (3) there is a sub-rectangular enclosure which measures 11m NW-SE by 9.4m within a rubble wall 2m in thickness. There is a wide entrance in the NE side.
