Scope and Content In centre view is the line of a dismantled branch railway, a branch from the main line to Aberdeen, serving Fort George. It was opened in 1899 but closed in August 1958. On the left of the photo, in the corner of the field, is the site of Dalyard rectilinear enclosure. The fragments of the ruins of a large building existed in the beginning of the 18th century and the building is supposed to have been either a religious house or fortalice belonging to the Knights-templar. Though now in a cultivated field, agricultural operations have not entirely obliterated traces of the surrounding fosse. Title and Scope & Content contributed by North of Scotland Archaeological Society (2021).
