Fullarton's Gazetteer
New Statis. [Statistical] Account |
009 |
"Betwixt Farr and Kirtomy in this parish", says Pennant, "is a most singular Curiosity, well worth the pains of a traveller to view, being the remains * of an old square building or Tower, called Borve, standing upon a small point joined to the continent by a narrow neck of land not 10 feet wide. This point or head is very high, consisting of rock and some gravel on the top, on both sides is very deep water and a tolerable harbour for boats", - "This Tower seems to be built by the Norwegians; and a tradition is that one Thorkel or Torquil, a Warrior mentioned by Jorfaens, was the person that built it. They speak likewise of a Lady that was concealed there; she is said to be an Orkney woman, and Thorkel was an Orkney man, But what is most curious is, that through the rock upon which the Tower stands, there is a passage below of 200 feet in length, like a grand arch or vault, through which they row a boat. The writer has been one of a company that rowed through it. The passage is so long, that when once you enter at one end, you fancy that there is no possibility to get out at the other, and vice versa. How this hard rock was bored or excavated I cannot say; but it is one of the most curious natural arches, perhaps in the Known word."

A high peninsular rock - with precipitous sides - on which are Extensive ruins of a very ancient type - A subterranean passage, the Principal opening of which is on the East side of the precipice is almost Entire - This has no doubt been a strong place of Defence in the days of spear and Javelin, as a deep fosse separates the building from the land. This is one of the many Pre-historic ruins which are on the Coasts of Caithness and Sutherland and of which we Know very little about - and can get no information of - The names they bear are no guide whatever as to their antiquity - The name Dun Mhairtain for instance although probabily very ancient is not likely the original name of this Dun or Brough - however its the name that it is best known by now-a-days. N.B. The small square in red shewn on trace is an opening in the subterranean Passage - where some of the Coverings of it have been displaced |

"Halladus is said by some to have been killed in Battle, in that part of the Parish of Reay which lies in Sutherland, and which is called Strathalladale. It is a vally ten miles in length, divided into two sides by a river called the river of Halladale, running from the south to the north, and falling into the north Sea at Torr. About the middle of this Strath, and near a place called Dal-Halladha, the country people shew a spot where, they say a bloody battle was fought between the Scots and Norwegians. It was on the side of a hill on the east side of the river, now covered with Small Cairns or heaps of Stones, where the Slain are supposed to be buried, and there they Say Halladha the King of Lochlin's Son was Slain. Not only so but they also shew the place where he was buried on the opposite side of the River!! The place referred to, is now Called Dalhalvaig The cairns on the east side of the river are shewn on trace, but that on the opposite have been removed and cultivated with the exception of a few in Sheet 20.

Mr. D. Gunn Trantlebeg

Mr. Murray Teacher |
029 |
This name applies to the remains of an ancient building which very probably - belonged to the Picts, from the construction of the building. It is of a circular Shape and measures about 70 feet in diameter. It is composed of very large Stones So large indeed that it would be thought impossible for any number of men to raise them to Such a height without the aid of machinery. None of these Stones are drest nor is there any appearance of Morter having been used in building it. The outer wall is about 12 feet thick, and Similar to Some of the Pictish houses, already described, in Caithness. the entrance is a long narrow passage or passages one of which is still partly open. Immediatly over this passage there appears to have been another passage which as well as the height of the building shows that they have had chambers above chambers, the lower flat being sunk under the Surface of the Knoll on which the Stonework is erected. I can get no information about this place but I have no doubt it is one of the Picts towers, from the munter of Stones which have fallen from the top it has evidently been, at least double its present height [continued page 240] |

This valey, extends South ward, from the South east base of Ben Griam Bheag, near the South extremity of Strath-Halladale, for Several miles along the Helmsdale river. There are very few houses in the upper or north end of this Strath; It is almost all under Sheep, consequently, there are Scarcely any houses except Shepherds' dwellings in the greater part of it. Some five years ago, Gold was discovered to be among the Sand and Stones of Several of the Streams in and near this Strath. Soon after this discovery was made, a number of people gathered from all parts of the country with golden hopes, but as they were confined to particular parts of the ground, altho; there was a good deal of dust and Some few, Small nuggets found overall, none of them had their hopes, of making a fortune, realized. The diggers were Soon Stoped, by His Grace the Duke of Sutherland, but it is thought he will, again, open the mines, after the Caithness and Sutherland Railway is finished. A few of the workmen, are said to have found, - Gold dust, and small nuggets, while making the Railway. |

On and near the Summit of this eminence are a number of broken down walls, built of large Stones, without morter. These walls are from three to five feet thick, and are believed to have formed a kind of fortification, which is very probable from the Strength and Situation of the different erections. Nothing, however, is known about them, nor at what period they were built. Several battles, between the Clans were fought in this vicinity, but I am inclined to think that these fortifications belonged to a more ancient race. In 1506 an engagement took place, on the South west Slope of this eminence, near Airidh Dhamh, between the Clans, Gunn, and Sinclair, where the former were defeated, and chased to the top of Ben Gream More. Where on the following day they were joined by the Clan Mackay, who along with the Gunns attacked the Sinclairs on the South east Slope of Ben Gream more, The Sinclairs were defeated and put [Continued page 308] |

Put to flight leaving their leader - Capt. [Captain] Henry Sinclair and 140 of their best men dead on the ground. The Sinclairs fled and were pursued by the enemy to a place called Ault Gower now Bannockburn, near Auchintoul, where the conflict was renewed and the destruction of the Sinclairs Completed. In 1576 another battle was fought between the Mackays and the Gunns. The Mackays having invaded the lands belonging to the Gunns in Braemore Strathmore Strath-halladale and Strathy, carrying with them everything they could find, such as Cattle &c. The Gunns asembled all their forces and made a Similar attack on the property of their enemy. The latter instantly pursued the, Skirmishing all the way from Strathnever, to this place where they fought until their arrows were exhausted. At this crisis, a Small party of the Gunns of Kildonan came over the Side of Ben Gream Beag and completely routed, the Mackays. |
