Full Description
A project to survey and record archaeological features at Inverlaidnan and Sluggan (originally named Inchluin) was undertaken by NOSAS members in 2018.
Site 47. Cairnfield. On a south facing slope 400m NW of Sluggan Bridge this cairnfield is partly in the commercial plantation (at least 4 cairns) and partly (6 cairns) south of the deer fence in improved ground occupied by the post medieval farmstead of Buail am Amaidain. Nearby prehistoric cairns (NOSAS features 51 and 48) may be associated. <1>
