Full Description
Remains of a farmstead at Achridigill, Sutherland. The farmstead is shown on the OS 1st Edition 6 inch map as a dispersed group of five buildings and associated enclosures. The site has now long been abandoned and most of the buildings are reduced to rubble and/or earthworks as seen on vertical aerial photography. Unfortunately most of the buildings and some of the smaller enclosures have since been destroyed to construct a shooting range. <1> <2> <3> <4>
