Derelict Cottage at Balure
Derelict Cottage at Balure
Balure is a deserted settlement above Achnamara, and this cottage is the most intact, still having a roof.
A local resident who rents a nearby field for sheep told me (in May 2010) that it had last been inhabited in about the late 1940s by a 1st World War veteran who had been shot through the hand.
