Following Culloden in April 1746 he sought refuge here at the home of Angus MacDonald of Glenborrodale & yet again in August 1746 ,after his adventurous journeys around the highlands as a fugitive, he was hidden in a cave near the house before making his escape to France from Loch nan Uamh a few miles away. In retribution the house was burned down by government troops.
