Archaeology Notes

ND34SW 431 ND 3027 4412

Nothing can be seen of this building, which stood at the edge of what is now a field of pasture 70m NW of West Yarrows farmsteading (ND34SW 116). The building is not depicted on either the 1st or 2nd edition of the OS 6-inch map (Caithness 1876, sheet xxix; 1907, sheet xxix), but it is visible on a vertical aerial photograph taken in 1946 (RAF 106/G/SCOT/UK.74, print 4317).

Visited by RCAHMS (JRS) 11 August 2004.
