Full Description
Site of target belonging to Fearn Lodge.
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, not all related to Telford, were visited and photographed by participants. Two targets are depicted on the 2nd edition OS map. The southernmost one, up the hill, is still there (2014). <1>
