NH84NE 26 8815 4918

A township, comprising seven roofed buildings, one partially roofed building and six unroofed buildings is depicted on the 1st edition of the OS 6-inch map (Nairnshire 1871, sheet iv). Three roofed buildings and two enclosures are shown on the current edition of the OS 1:10000 map (1979).
Information from RCAHMS (AKK) 5 August 1996.

Field survey revealed that an area within which the unroofed buildings are shown is heavily overgrown with piles of rubble and refuse. However, two buildings and a section of linear stone and turf dyke are visible. To the south of Mid Urchany, on the west side of the road, there are indications that structures were once present. Although overgrown, there are occasional piles of rubble that indicate that there were strucutes sited here previously. <1>
