Descriptive gazetteer entries

In 1887, John Bartholomew's Gazetteer of the British Isles described Sutors of Cromarty like this:

Sutors of Cromarty, two wooded eminences, Ross and Cromarty, on the opposite sides of the entrance to Cromarty Firth; the Southern Sutor is 463 ft. high.

This is the only descriptive gazetter entry we have found, but you may be able to find further references to Sutors of Cromarty by doing a full-text search here.
