Remains of a farmstead, sheepfolds, enclosures and shielings. On the 1st edition OS map of 1846 the small farmstead, called 'Balloch', consists of a rectangular building with attached D-shaped enclosure. To the north-east is a sub-circular enclosure with small attached building and circa 290m to the west-southwest is a sub-circular sheepfold with a disused sub-square small building. By the 2nd edition OS map of 1888 the buildings are all disused and a trapezoidal enclosure is shown to the west of the farmstead. On the 2005 map, only the westernmost sheepfold, part of the easternmost sheepfold and the trapezoidal enclosure are shown. Recorded by GUARD in 1999 during field survey.
