A farmstead comprising two unroofed buildings, one of which is a long building, is depicted on the 1st edition of the OS 6-inch map (Caithness 1876, sheet ix). One unrofed building is shown on the current edition of the OS 1:10,560 map (1962).

Information from RCAHMS (AKK) 11 September 1995.

This farmstead, situated on the S side of Cnoc na Moine, was noted during a pre-afforestation survey of Sandside Estate. It comprises one building, measuring 20m from NNW to SSE, and the heather-covered footings of a further two possible structures on NW to SE alignments. Short lengths of dyke are also visible.
