Sròn Ocrhulan takes its name from the hillside on which it was built. It was a township of at least eight houses, located a mile or so north of the existing township of Gillen on the eastern side of the Waternish peninsula. Sròn Ocrhulan included a large area of cultivated land enclosed by stone and earth walls. All is now deserted and ruined, though the once cultivated lands still stand out as an area of short green grass among the deep heather and moss which covers the majority of the Waternish peninsula.
