Findon, an estate in Urquhart and Logie-Wester parish, Ross-shire, on the SE shore of Cromarty Firth, 5 miles NE of Conan Bridge. Traversed by a burn of its own name, that makes a fine cascade of 20 feet in a yawning bosky gorge, it belongs to Mackenzie of Mountgerald, and by improvements in the way of draining, fencing, and building, had its rental raised from £3774 in 1867 to £4624 in 1876.
