Description

This 18th-century building, which may date back even earlier, is a single-storey former cottage or outhouse with exposed rubble walls.

On the east elevation, there is an inserted door that has been breeze blocked. The north elevation shows possible remains of a stack, although it was only partially visible in 2001. The west elevation features a door on the left side. The south elevation has an arched opening on the right, which could have been a door or window.

The building has a pitched roof covered with pantiles. Inside, which was also partially seen in 2001, there is a large step down from the ground outside into the building, which has been used for storage. Additionally, a rubble wall extends from the east elevation gables and forms part of Little Causeway.
