Line of buildings at Sandaig
I am reasonably sure that I have got this right, but it was a long time ago that I was here and what has happened since then appears a bit confusing. There is little on the web about it, but from looking at other Geographs it would seem that these buildings were restored at one time and then allowed to go derelict again. If I have made a mistake then let me know and I'll correct it. From a print, date not exact.
