Ardochbeg: ruins of an ancillary building

The ruined house at Ardochbeg is shown in Image and Image (click on the end-note title for related pictures). However, there was a longer, narrow building a short distance to the east of the house. The present photograph shows the remains of that building, whose long axis was, as the disposition of the rubble suggests, oriented along the line of sight; it was also internally divided. This long building had already been demolished by the start of the First World War, while the house itself, just to the west, remained standing and was occupied up until the Second World War.
