Full Description
A post-medieval (probably C19) cottage south of Culnabrae, Culnakirk, Drumnadrochit. It is shown on the OS 1st Edition map of 1875.
The cottage was noted during a walkover survey by C Dagg for a proposed woodland creation scheme in 2005. It was considered that the cottage was not the same as that shown on the OS 1st Edition map. <1>
A photographic survey of the building was carried out in 2013 as a condition on a planning application for the erection of a house and shed. <1>
The cottage was subsequently demolished during a topsoil strip in 2013 monitored by Archaeology North, in advance of the construction of a new house. No archaeological features were noted. <2>
