Full Description

NC70SE 15 76 03.

There is a Pictish tower at Salachie (Loch Salachaidh at NC 7603).
H Morrison 1883.

No broch can be identified in the vicinity of Loch Salachaidh. A number of hut circles occur around the loch and it is likely the "Pictish Tower" has been confused with one of them, eg NC70SW 34 (Hut 'A') and NC70SE 36 (Hut 'B').
Visited by OS (J M) 12 August 1975.
