In 1882-4, Frances Groome's Ordnance Gazetteer of Scotland described Dunachton like this:
Dunachton, a barony in Alvie parish, Inverness-shire, 1 ¼ mile SW of Kincraig station. It passed by marriage, about 1500, from the M`Nivens to the Mackintoshes; and had a castle, burned in 1689, and never rebuilt.
Dunachton is now part of HIGHLAND Council. Click here for graphs and data of how HIGHLAND has changed over two centuries. For statistics about Dunachton itself, go to Statistics.
