Archaeology Notes

NH80NE 22 874 073

Air photography has revealed the upstanding remains of what appears to be a motte and bailey immediately W of Inshriach Nursery, originally known as South Kinrara. This has yet to be verified by ground survey.

Information from J Harden, 1989.

This site was visited in the course of fieldwork by Dr. T.C. Welsh in 1993.
