Full Description
A Beaker, formerly in the British Museum (1911,7-19,3), but now lost, was catalogued as coming from Nether Buckie, Banff (?Area NJ 4265), but in fact probably came from Nairn.
The museum had purchased it from Wm Taylor of Lhanbryd, Moray, who in turn got it from Hugh W Young of Burghead, who had lived at Tortola, Nairn.
