Full Description

ND13SE 116 1673 3291

The ruins of this farmstead are situated in open moorland on the NE fringe of the shallow basin in the hills that is named Achnagoul. The farmstead is shown roofed on the first edition of the OS 6-inch map (Caithness 1872, sheet xxxix), at which time it comprised an L-shaped range with two detached buildings and two enclosures, but by 1906 only the detached building to the SE of the range was still roofed (Caithness 1906, sheet xxxix).
