NG88SW 12.01 8462 8114

A mill, comprising a one roofed building and a lade is depicted on the 1st edition of the OS 6-inch map (Ross-shire 1881, sheet xlv), but it is not shown on the current edition of the OS 1:10560 map (1968).
Information from RCAHMS (AKK) 23 April 1996.

The 1875 OS survey named a roofed building here 'Boor Mill (corn)'. It was served by a lade. All these features appear to have been destroyed by the construction of the new bridge, though the mill site may just survive to the N of the construction area. <1>
