Full Description

A complex of ruinous buildings were surveyed during walkover survey along Strath Brora. 3 buildings, a kiln and an enclosure were recorded. They are all shown on the current Ordnance Survey map. <1>

<1> interprets this building complex as part of the township of Kerrynamanoch (MHG12574). The description given in MHG34653 (by RCAHMS), and the mapping evidence would suggest that the 'farmstead' at 27652, 90947 is an isolated group of buildings, so a separate monument record has been created for this site. <2>
