description
The exact construction time of 13 Kilmoluaig is not recorded, so that only the early 19th century can be given as the construction period. The one-story house is built in the traditional Hebridean style. The property consists of a residential building with barns and stables connected on both sides. The squat looking house consists essentially of massive dry stone masonry , which is partly grouted with mortar and partly limed on the front. The central residential building ends with a thatched hipped roof . The northern barn has a modern roof covered with felt . The southern of the three buildings is now only preserved as a ruin.
