Cathair Dubh Bo Graideach

Enclosure (period Unassigned)

What is recorded here

Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Cathair Dubh Bo Graideach as Enclosure (period Unassigned). The official map says its point is accurate as follows: NGR given to the nearest 100m. The record does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
Cathair Dubh Bo Graideach is a likely early-medieval ringfort, or rath, associated with the Gaelic term for "Black Fort of the Cattle of the Grange." Such sites often feature in local folklore as dwellings of fairies or ancient chieftains, and the name suggests a historical or mythological connection to cattle and land.

The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
