Later 18th century. Circular hut with roughly squared and stugged stone walls and a conical thatched roof supported on a radial timber structure. Pointed arched window and entrance.

Statement of Interest

It is among a relatively small number of buildings with a surviving thatched roof found across Scotland. A Survey of Thatched Buildings in Scotland, published in 2016 by the Society for the Protection of Ancient Buildings (SPAB), found there were only around 200 buildings with a thatched roof, most of which are found in small rural communities.

Listed building record revised in 2021 as part of the Thatched Buildings Listing Review.
