Was really interested in the comments about Braelangwell. My ggg-grandfather was gardener there in the 1841 census - David Ross. He was previously at Balvil in Ferintosh. Ferintosh was the site of the earliest distillery on the Black Isle. David Alston in his book "Ross & Cromarty, a Historical Guide" reports remnants of a distillery at Braelangwell, but does not report from when it might date. In 1756 and 1803 lists of estate owners, Braelangwell was owned by the Urquhart family. Had it passed to an Andrews by 1841? Fran p.s. I don't have the 1841 census at hand now. Had looked at it previously at the FHL. And, I failed to note the owner of Braelangwell when I had it.
