Today the village has around 70 inhabitants, not including those in the outlying hamlets. Nearby is Tormore Quarry, which produced red granite building blocks unique to the Ross of Mull. The blocks were very hard wearing and were used in several lighthouses and other building works, including Blackfriars Bridge and the Albert Memorial in London
