Full Description

The remains of a possible collection of farmsteads, as shown on historic and modern OS mapping, exists to the north of Glensgaich, Fodderty. It was noted during a desk-based assessment prior to a wakover survey for a new hydro-electric scheme at Glensgaich in 1999. The area had been planted with conifers and it was noted that little may remain of the original structures. <1>

The area has now been clear-felled but it is not clear from aerial photographs if anything has survived. [IS-L 11/4/2013]
