Full Description
NH63SE 72 688 332
There are four buildings and three enclosures situated on the stone-littered leading edge of the first terrace above the haughland on the E side of the River Farnack. The 1st edition of the OS 6-inch map (Inverness-shire 1874, sheet xxxi) depicts three unroofed buildings and two enclosures at this location, while the 2nd edition (Inverness-shire 1905, sheet xx) depicts an unroofed, two-compartment building, which may be USN93 382. Three of the buildings (USN93 380, 382 and 383) have bedneuks, and one (USN93 382) is overlain by one of the enclosures shown on the 1st edition map. On the terrace to the NE there are traces of rig cultivation, apparently unenclosed.
