85994: The black house at 5 Geshader

The black house at 5 Geshader

At the side of the old white house on croft 5, Geshader are the ruins of the old black house. The newer white houses were sometimes built next to the old black houses, which were then used as byres for animals or later as sheds. The walls in the foreground (covered by green netting) was used as a barn.
