I do have a photo but I think it is in the loft! From the inlet it is a couple of hundred yards. Looking at Google Earth the brick wall for the gardens opposite starts opposite the bigger cottage next door & proceeds along passed the red brick cottage & one other.

Sorry I didn't answer your other question - north of the inlet.

Only about a hundred yards south of the church

Then it must be one of these. None of those names you gave seem to have been the original feuars. I cannot give the original names on this public forum as they were only feued in the 1940-60s. If you can relate the google map street view to one of the numbers on the map, personal message me with your email address  & I can send the name/s. However, before they were feued they would have been rented out by the estate to tenants and I do not have any of those names. The tenant was not always the person who bought the feu.

ADDED: Ahh 1225 has one of your names with 'ar' rather than 'er'....I think we have nailed it. 1225 was called 'Graham Cottage' in 1961 when it was feued to a Janet.....

Many thanks for your help. Could you please explain to a southerner the term feuar & how the system works?
