(Location cited as NO 4005 8943). Shiel of Glentana [Glentanar], shooting lodge: a single-storey shooting lodge, built after 1869, and more recently used in part as a mountain bothy. It was accidentally burned down in the mid-1990's, the ruins being cleared by 2003. A retaining wall behind the site is all that remains.
