NH19 1 ALLT RAON A' CHROISG ('Leckmelm')

NH/1695 9008

Possible broch in Lochbroom, Ross and Cromarty, described as a 'Pictish tower' on the 1906 OS 6-inch map [1], and in 1875 apparently visible as the foundations of a circular mound or wall about 30ft in diameter [1]. Nothing can be seen now [3] except a rubbly knoll which does not look very like a broch site [1].
