County of Sutherland -- Parish of Kildonan
Strath of Kildonan [Note]
The leading valley, and most important part of the parish, is, however,
as frequently called Strath Helmsdale, (disregarding the tautology of Strath
and Dale) as it is called Strath of Kildonan; but in Gaelic it is alone known
by the Stra' Iligh, while the river is called Aven-Iligh,_ and the village of Helmsdale , at the
mouth of the river, Bun-Iligh, _ the root or lower end of Iligh. All this strengthens the belief
that the river Helmsdale is the "Ilius flumen ," or river Ilie of Ptolemy, who places that river on the present
east coast of Sutherland, and close to "Verubium promontorium," which is unquestionably the Ord of Caithness.
The name Ilie is therefore older than that of Helmsdale, which must have been introduced, long subsequent to the time of
Agricola, by the northmen, whose inroads and adventures on the coasts of Sutherland and Caithness, during
the tenth, eleventh, and twelfth centuries, are so often narrated in the northern Sagas, and historically arranged
by Torfaeus. Kildonan, again, is believed to have originated after the settlement of Christian missionaries in the
north of Scotland, and is, therefore, in all probability, of more ancient origin than the name Helmsdale.

This name applies to a Pictish Tower, situated about one half Mile to the East of Kilfedder farm Steading. this Tower is composed of two Circular walls each of which is four feet in thickness and standing about ten feet high above the general surface the diameter of the inner wall is about thirty feet and that of the outer about Sixty Six feet. The tower is surrounded by a rampart and Ditch in the form of a parallelogram. the relief of this rampart is abut five feet above the general Surface and that of the Ditch about five feet below the general Surface. The ground upon the East, South & West of this Tower for a distance of about three hundred yards is Covered with small heaps of Stones and earth and generally believed to be graves, as there is a tradition in the district that there was a battle fought here, but nothing appears to be known about the date of the battle neither the names of the Conflicting parties.
Further inquiry having been instituted regarding the Origin of these heaps of stones and the battle which was supposed to have been fought here disclosed the fact that there was no authority for supposing them to be graves or that a battle even took place in their vicinity they have therefore been omitted to be shown as such on the Ordnance Plans. |
