Field Walking (4 April 2012)
NN 5354 1924 – NN 5290 1750 A walkover survey was undertaken on 4 April 2012 along the proposed route of a new underground power line to connect with the Ballimore hydro scheme. The survey identified the remnants of the former settlements of Bailemeanoch (NN51NW 11) and Clachglas (NN51NW 9), and the scant remains of three previously unrecorded buildings towards the N end of the survey area. Each survives as little more than one course of rubble walls covered with vegetation.
