| LOCH NAM FEAR | Loch nam Fear | Capt [Captain] Gunn Braehour D. Gunn Dalnaha A. Mackay Cnoc-glas |
026 | A small lake north east of Loch a Mhuilinn. It is said that it received the name from the fact, that two or three men of the name of Calder were killed at this Loch, by a man of the name of Bain who lived some where about Dalawillan, to which place he brought the bodies and buried them in an old byre which stood about the centre of the graveyard there. This is supposed to have taken place some time during the 15th century. |
