NR3343 : Lurabus, deserted settlement, Islay
near to Upper Cragabus, Argyll And Bute, Great Britain
Lurabus, deserted settlement, Islay
This settlement is regarded as being the largest and best preserved of the numerous deserted settlements in The Oa area of Islay.
It is believed to have been settled in from 1700 onwards but the remains still there today cannot be dated further back than 1800. It seems that the settlement was deserted by the third quarter of that century.
