Srp Note (11 January 2011)
Situated on a glacial terrace on the N side of the River Meig are the footings of two substantial rectangular buildings that represent the remains of a probable farmstead, (NOSAS site survey numbers 787 and 788) and a sheepfold (786). A single unroofed building and the sheepfold are depicted on the 1st edition of the OS 6-inch map (Ross-shire 1881, sheet lxxxvi).
Further details of these and other associated sites can be found in the Strathconon Phase 3 Report (page 38) produced by the North of Scotland Archaeology Society and appended to this record.
