Clyne church now in Dunrobin Museum was
taken from above the doorway of the church whence
it is said to have been brought from the site of
the ancient chapel at Gordonbush. This
was a very wet afternoon especially when we
were on the hills.
25 Augt. [August]. Hired out to Balnacoil. The weather
cold and stormy.
Near the top of the hill at Balnacoil
and somewhat less than 1/2 m. [mile] N.E [North East] of the lodge
is a cairn of from 48' to 50' diameter and
about 4' high. Small excavations have
been made in several places but no cist is
exposed. Between the cairn and the
Lodge and also along the S. [South] slope and
level summit of this hill for a considerable
distance to the Eastward are numerous
small cairns of the usual type.
On the E. [East] bank of the Allt Ach a' Bhathaich
from about 1 1/2 m. [miles] above its junction with
the Brora downwards are a number
of hut circles and associated small cairns.
Most of them are overgrown with deep
heather but appear to be of the simple
type with banks of earth and stone
about 5' wide and entrance S.E. [South East]
