Full Description

NH67NW 2 unlocated.

There is a hill-fort in the wood near Baldoon.
W J Watson 1904.

The farmer at Easter Baldon knew of no hill-fort in area. The summit of Cnoc Strathy was perambulated without any evidence of fortification coming to light. The chambered cairn, (NH67NW 3) has been described erroneously as a stronghold, and this account may refer to that site.
Visited by OS (R D L) 9 May 1963.

Probably NH67NW3. No change. Visited by OS (NKB) 29 10 1970
