Full Description
Site of horizontal mill which has been converted to sheep pen. Most mill features, with the exception of the exit port, have been obliterated. The mill lade, though faint, is easily traceable running NNE to No. 7 Gearraidh na h-Aibhne, thence through nos. 8 to 10 where it would have joint Allt Mhurchaidh at NB23331 32067. The distance of this lade is approximately 300 metres.
