Details Farmstead, still in use, depicted on historic OS maps. It is shown on the 1st edition OS map of 1867 as an L-plan steading with two rectangular buildings and a mill building to the south, a farmhouse to the southwest and a rectangular building to the east. On the 2nd edition map of 1888, the steading has been enlarged to a U-plan open to the south, and the two buildings to the south have been removed. The steading survives but has been enlarged, the farmhouse survives and the mill building is shown as roofless, but the building to the east has been removed. The farmstead includes a whin-mill of grindstone type, the apparatus neglected and not now in working order. It is made of reddish granite, the stone 1.21m in diameter, 0.48m thick, shaft-hole 0.20m diameter.
