Activities

Field Visit (17 March 2004)

ND34SW 501 ND 3417 4427

Nothing is visible of this cottage which stood in what is now the garden of a modern house. The cottage, and a small building which stood immediately E of it, are depicted roofed on the 1st edition of the OS 6-inch map (Caithness 1876, sheet xxx). Only the cottage is shown on the 2nd edition of the map (1907, sheet xxx), and it was still roofed at that time.
