Uamh an Righ (Bruce's Cave) [NAT]
OS 1:10,000 map, 1977
The hiding place of Robert the Bruce. It is difficult to find, being quite invisible from below. 'Nothing of the slightest antiquarian interest could I discover; nor were there any relics'.
G A F Knight 1914.
The cave is a small natural rock shelter. The name is known locally.
Visited by OS (RD) 16 December 1968.
