In 2014 ARCH provided a number of courses, field trips and other activities exploring and researching the remains of the 19th century engineer, road and church builder Thomas Telford. A project was undertaken in Kyle of Sutherland, during which many sites, some not directly related to Telford, were visited and photographed by participants. The farmhouse (at NGR 261004 887870) was renovated in the 1950s, but burnt down shortly afterwards. <1>
