Mr Gow Kilninver Mr McIntyre Lagganbeg |
110 | Near the roadside at Lagganmore is the foundation of a barn in which it is said a large number of people were burnt to death by Alister MacColla- from whose anger they had here sought shelter- They were, however, discovered and the barn set fire to. Nothing but the bones of the sufferers remained after the subsiding of the fire- and ever afterwards this ruin has borne the name of the bones barn- "The notorious Alexander McDonald better known in the highlands by the name of Alistair MacCholla having in his warlike expedition through Argyle passed through this parish the men fled at his approach, but women and children to the number of several scores fled into a barn where they were discovered and without the least offence or provocation barbarously burnt to ashes- The ruins where this tragical deed was perpetrated are still seen bearing the name of the Bones barn.
