Two farmsteads with mills to South-West and North-West of the Catholic seminary (NJ21NW0004) from the early-19th century, but probably incorporating some earlier fabric. The South steading (category B-listed) is a harl pointed rectangular steading range, built at 2 levels and with long elevations at the North-East and South-West. There is an under-shot mill wheel at the South end of the South-West elevation, served by a timber lade in poor condition, along which the water was channelled via a stream from the South. The roof is constructed of corrugated-iron. Current maps show a pond and sluice on this stream, although these are not shown on the 1st and 2nd edition OS maps. The building has also been altered to an L-plan. The North steading (category A-listed) does not appear on the 1st edition OS map, but the 2nd edition shows an L-plan building, still in use. It is a 2-storey harl pointed building, with the South gable built against the slope, and with a wide entrance. There is a lean-to wheel house in the centre of the long West elevation, with a swept roof continuous with the main building. The mill wheel is in working order, and is served by lade. The 2-bay East wing housed a stable, while the main Western portion of the building once had two square headed cart sheds at its North end with a loft entrance above, together with mill machinery located in the Western part of the building. There is a Tomintoul slate roof. In the 1970s, the mill-wheel and associated machinery was used to power a battery at nearby Scalan Cottage. The mill wheel is now not in use.
