‘In Durris (ie Dores) at the North end of Loch Ness is a Druid temple of three concentric circles: in all of these druidical circles there was an altar stone at the centre, but that at Durris is taken away, and near the centre is a hollowed stone which either was a laver to wash in, or a basin to receive the blood of the sacrifice’.
