Remains of a probable still and hut. The probable still (NJ 3982 0679) has been set into the foot of a steep west-facing slope and spans a narrow tributary about 60m east of the burn. It measures 4m from north to south by up to 2.5m transversely within walls 1m in thickness and up to 1.5m in height. The entrance is in the centre of the west side, but in the north side, close to the southwest corner, there is another opening set about 1m above the level of the interior which probably allowed water to be carried into the building from the stream to the south. The hut (NJ 3979 0686) is situated 70m north-northwest of the still, on the east bank of the Burn of Badanseaneach and is depicted on the OS 1st edition map. It measures about 5m from northeast to southwest by 1.5m transversely within a stone wall that has been largely reduced to a spread of tumbled stones. There is an entrance midway along the northwest side.
