Archaeology Notes

ND34NW 81 ND 34406 45255

Nothing is visible of this farmstead, which stood in what is now improved ground about 170m SSE of the ruins of the farmstead ND34NW 34. As depicted on the 1st edition of the OS 6-inch map (Caithness 1877, sheet xxx), the steading comprised a range on the S side of a garden, with what appears to have been an enclosure attached to the N side of the garden. Only the range is depicted on the 2nd edition of the map (1907, sheet xxx) and it is shown unroofed.
