Probably earlier 19th century, 2-storey white-washed rubble combination steading/barn with long elevations east and west. Regular east elevation with 3 ground floor doors and centre 1st floor winnowing door with flanked paired slit vents. Similar vents in north and south gables. Centre winnowing door in east elevation flanked by wide modern windows; later door in north gable serves 1st floor approached by wooden
forestair. Slate roof.
Good example of combination steading/barn type found in Lochaber built against bank of natural mound. Horsewalk, to motivate mechanised threshing, probably later modification. Altered, c. 1980, to accommodate pottery in ground floor and hostel type accommodation in 1st floor.
