Ach' na Cloiche ('the field of the stone')
In the mid-eighteenth century the area we now call Achnacloich was joined with the farm now known as Gillen. Together, they were known as Tarskavaigmore (source: Macdonald Estate Papers: 1733 rental and 1766 map of Sleat).
A USAF aeroplane crashed here in 1945, killing all on board. The scars can still be seen on the hillside.
