Archaeology Notes

NH80NW 45 818 052.

Aerial photography (RCAHMSAP 1995) has revealed the remains of a farmstead, township, rig and field banks at the foot of a hillside 450m WNW of Dunachton Mill. At least five unroofed buildings, and a possible kiln, are visible on the W side of a trackway. These buildings are not depicted on the 1st edition of the OS 6-inch map (Inverness-shire 1872, sheets lxxxvii) or the current edition of the OS 1:10000 map (1995), although one field bank is. A patch of rig and furrow cultivation lies immediately to the E of the buildings and the trackway.

Information from RCAHMS (KB) 30 April 1999
