What may be two unroofed shieling-huts are depicted on the 1st edition of the OS 6-inch map (Inverness-shire, Hebrides, Barra etc. 1880, sheet lxiv), but they are not shown on the current edition of the OS 1:10000 map (1971).

Current AP's indicate a sub triangular enclosure now occupies the site where the two sheiling were located.
