Not included in the SMR (1989) but listed in the RMP and classified 'House Site'. In rough rocky pasture, on an E-facing shelf in the Bricklieve mountains. The remains of a rectangular stone-built structure (int. dims: 6.1m x 5.3m). The sod covered walls (T 1.1m; int. H 0.75m; ext. H 0.75m) are constructed of limestone slabs placed on their sides with numerous gaps. A roofless structure is indicated here on the 1838 OS 6-inch map. The surrounding field walls are of similar construction. It is likely to be post-1700 AD in date.
