Structure B is a small group of inter-related ‘cells’ or rooms to the left of the bridge.
Structure C is a sub-rectangular building that may have two or three rooms.
Structure D is a large group of inter-related ‘cells’ or rooms, these may have been used for storage.
Structure E is an artificial pond built to collect fresh water.
Structure F is composed of two slight hollows in the ground, at the top of a natural ravine called Palla na Biorlinn, which leads down to the sea. The hollows are of unknown use.
Structure G is the remains of a rectangular castle or tower that has partly collapsed. Traditionally it is known as Tigh nan Arm. This building is being excavated this year.
