NH 9146 1940 A photographic record was made of the steading in advance of redevelopment of the site for residential use. The site lies between Carrbridge and Boat of Garten, alongside the B9153. It consists of two buildings: one long barn built of local freestone and a smaller wooden shed on a concrete base. The longer building seems to be built onto older, more substantial stone foundations, and is shown on the 1st edition OS map (1875). The shed is clearly mid- to late 20th century. A former lime kiln and the possible sites of other former buildings were also identified.
