Blackpark

NN76SW 14 centred on 718 609.

To the left of Bohespie, in a sheltered hollow near the Allt na Moine Buidhe, is a Wade military encampment. The place is in ruins, but a ground plan, similar to Ruthven Barracks (NN79NE 1), can still be traced.

There are some twenty rectangular buildings at Blackpart, fourteen of which are built in two rows of eight and six. They average 7.0m x 4.0m with walls surviving to 2.0m high in places. No evidence of similarity to Ruthven Barracks here.
