Rev. [Reverend] Mr Grabt Ullapool Mr R. Maclean Easter Adross |
053 | A Gaelic name meaning Cairn of the Fingalians, and is applied to a Grave found by three upright Stone flags on each side, and one at each end measuring 18 feet long and 5 broad. The grave has recently been opened and a few teeth and small bones were found at the west end and at the centre of the Grave at a depth of 2 feet below the surface from which it is inferred that two more were buried in it, one at the feet of the other. Evidences have been found of a battle having been fought about 600 to 800 yards west of this grave from which it is concluded that the Grave is that of two of the Fingalian leaders who fell. |
