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.
