Archaeology Notes

ND34SW 368 ND 34169 43472

Nothing is visible of this farmstead, which has been demolished and replaced by a modern garage. Both the 1st and 2nd editions of the OS 6-inch map (Caithness 1876, sheet xxx; 1907, sheet xxx) depict a single roofed range aligned NW and SE at the NW end of a long field.
