Nothing is visible of the steading of this croft, which stood in what is now the western side of Duthie Park (NJ90SW 31.00). As depicted on the 1st edition of the OS 6-inch map (Aberdeenshire, 1869, sheet lxxv), the steading comprised three buildings, one of which was a roofed range, probably containing a cottage. This lay on the E side of a garden, within which two smaller buildings were situated close to the N and S ends respectively of the range. The steading appears to have been removed by the end of the 19th century and it is not shown on the 2nd edition of the map (1902, sheet lxxv.SE).
