Full Description
Site of a house. During the 16th and 17th centuries Buchragie served as a dowerhouse for the Ogilvies of Boyne. The only evidence that a structure formerly occupied this site is a rectangular platform abutting onto the west side of a drystone dyke. A rectangular enclosure is depicted on the OS 1st edition map but this had gone by the time of the 2nd edition, although a small rectangular structure is depicted lying on the east side of a wall where the enclosure was.
