In 1882-4, Frances Groome's Ordnance Gazetteer of Scotland described Kildary like this:
Kildary, a hamlet in Kilmuir-Easter parish, Rossshire, on the right bank of the Balnagown, with a station on the Highland railway, 5¼ miles NE of Invergordon. It has fairs for live stock on the Tuesday before the third Thursday of July, and on the Tuesday of each of the other eleven months before Beauly. Near it is Kildary House. The Balnagown here is crossed by an elegant railway viaduct of 50 feet in span, with a 14feet archway at the N end.—Ord. Sur., sh. 94, 1878.
