Archaeology Notes

NC85SE 43 870 504.

NC 876 509. Digue.

W Roy 1747-55.

Digue can almost certainly be equated with Dyke, now a modern, unoccupied house at NC 870 504.

Visited by OS (JB) 10 June 1977.

A farmstead comprising one roofed building, two unroofed buildings and two enclosures is depicted on the 1st edition of the OS 6-inch map (Sutherland 1878, sheet xxviii). Two roofed buildings and an enclosure are shown on the current edition of the OS 1:10,560 map (1963).
