OS 6"map, Inverness-shire, 2nd ed., (1904)
An ancient burial ground.
Name Book 1878.
No trace of this burial ground remains. Close to the site of the burial ground, attached to the south side of an old stone and turf wall, are the remains of a rectangular building, 8.0m x 4.5m formed by a turf-covered stone wall, 1.2m thick and 0.8m high on the south side. Although this building is oriented E.W approx. it appears to be contemporary with the stone wall.
Revised at 1/2500.
