Tha 14 lotaichean ann an Ach na Cloiche. ‘S ann air a’ chloich a tha a’ roinn lot 7 ann an dà leth a tha am baile air ainmeachadh. ‘S e ‘Clach an Teampuill’ no ‘Clach na Fuinne’ an t-ainm a th’ air a’ chloich. Bhiodh muinntir an àite a’ bogadh an làmhan anns an uisge a bh’ air cruinneachadh ann an sloc sa chloich is thigeadh leigheas air an fhuinne.
There are 14 crofts in Achnacloich or Stonefield. The township is named after the stone that splits croft 7 in two. It is known as ‘Clach an Teampuill’ – the temple stone – or ‘Clach na Fuinne’ – the wart stone. Local people would steep their hands in the water that had collected in a depression on the top of the stone as a remedy for warts.
