Craiganeoin, a deep natural amphitheatre in Moy and Dalarossie parish, Inverness-shire, 1 mile SE of Moy church. Surrounded by high rocks, and accessible only through one narrow passage, it was used in old times by the Highland caterans for concealing their wives and children during their raids into the low country; and was the scene of a skirmish in the '45, known as the Rout of Moy.
