Overlooking the branch road to Inverlochy Castle is a rustic little burying ground beside a rocky eminence old Lochaber folk say that no one is entitled to be buried here except descendants of those who fought in the Battle of Inverlochy in 1645 (NN17NW 3) but they admit this rule has been broken for many years.
