Archaeology Notes

NH67NW 2 unlocated

See also NH67NW 3.

There is a hill-fort in the wood near Baldoon.

W J Watson 1904.

The farmer at Easter Baldon knew of no hill-fort in the area. The summit of Cnoc Strathy was perambulated without any evidence of fortification coming to light.

The chambered cairn, (NH67NW 3) has been described erroneously as a stronghold, and this account may refer to that site.

Visited by OS (R D L) 9 May 1963.

Probably NH67NW 3. No change.

Visited by OS (N K B) 29 October 1970.
