| FORT [Ardinamar] | Fort Fort Fort |
Lachlan McLachlan Mr McPhail Neil Marquis Ballahuan |
129 | A little east of the west farm house of Ardinamar, on the summit of a commanding eminence are the remains of a fort. The wall cannot now be traced but from the number of loose stones it must have been a place of great strength. The only remains of antiquity in the parish are the ruins of some old forts so common in the Highlands. There is one of these on the top of a hill on the island of Luing. It is of a circular form, built of dry stone and was apparently a place of great strength as the wall is about ten feet thick. New Stat: Account |

Ordnance Survey - Argyll county
Ordnance Survey was established in the 18th century to create maps, surveys and associated records for the entirety of Great Britain. These records are arranged by county. This entry has been created to enable searching for Ordnance Survey records for the county of Argyll, which is in the west of Scotland. The boundaries of the county were altered by the Boundary Commissioners in 1891.
