Overview
Poll Tigh Charraigein is the exact Historic Environment Scotland record for a named whole township in Highland. The supporting saved type component is Township (period Unassigned). The source leaves its period unassigned. The saved record identifies the place without supplying safe names for its owners or residents.
Who lived here and when
The official record identifies Poll Tigh Charraigein with the exact type wording Township (period Unassigned). The source leaves its period unassigned. It does not safely name particular residents, families or landholders.
Homes and daily life
The exact type shows that this was an inhabited place rather than an isolated field or wall. The saved row does not describe individual homes, possessions, work or daily routines at Poll Tigh Charraigein.
What was found
This record preserves the name, classification and mapped point of Poll Tigh Charraigein. It does not safely list excavated objects or building finds, so none are added here.
Why it ended
The saved record does not explain whether Poll Tigh Charraigein was abandoned, cleared, rebuilt or gradually fell out of use. The word deserted is used only when it appears in the exact official type.
Why it mattered
Poll Tigh Charraigein matters because it fixes a named inhabited place in the landscape of Highland. Its exact subject and period help show where communities lived, while the individual source record gives later local research a firm starting point.
