Catalogue Number SC 1944628
Category On-line Digital Images
Scope and Content A general view of Loch nan Carraigean which is in the middle of an area of bronze or iron age settlement with signs of fields and cultivation and several roundhouses, one of which is clearly visible below the right hand lower tip of the loch. Another lies diagonally left towards the bottom centre of the image and a third to its left, a little below and with darker vegetation. Across the railway on the left hand shore a couple of mounds have been recorded in the past but all trace of them has now been lost. To the right of the loch a solitary tree stands in the middle of a very obvious Clava style cairn. Hidden behind the tree top is a small circular mound of stones which may be the remains of a cairn. Title and Scope & Content contributed by North of Scotland Archaeological Society (2021).
