Statement of Interest

A farmhouse appears at this site on Roy's Military Map of 1745-1755 (NLS). The house was the property of plantation owner Robert Gordon by 1803, and enlarged as shown on the 1810 'Plan of the Lands of Drakies' (NRS). Possibly following a further change of hands, considerable repairs and alterations were carried out in 1833 (Inverness Journal).
