Description

Industrial/part domestic building of uncertain purpose, but

evidently a part of Captain MacLeod's fisheries development programme of the 1780s at Rodel. Harled rubble, gabled and roofless 3-bay front and rear elevations; on 2 levels (excluding attic), and built on slope; single storey to roadside with centre doorway, roofless outshot partly obscures left bay which also contains a doorway (? altered); blind (? blocked) window in right hand bay. West elevation is 2-storeyed, with 3 large windows at upper floor, 2 small windows at ground/basement

and wide centre opening indicating industrial use - possibly

storage. On each gable, a fireplace at each level and axial stacks

built of squared rubble; also off-centre wall-head stack at west

(its upper stage in brick) above fireplace on principal (ie upper)

floor level. Low wing on south gable is also roofless.
