Old Leanach Cottage - Culloden, Inverness

Old Leanach Cottage - Culloden, Inverness

Leider war diese Hütte abgesperrt und ich konnte nicht näher heran. Mit den Steinwänden und dem Reetdach ist sie doch sehr fotogen.

Unfortunately the croft was closed off and I could not get nearer. With its stone walls and the grass covered roof the croft is very photogenic.

Additional information:
The only surviving building after the battle was the Old Leanach Cottage which was inhabited until 1912 and then kept preserved by the Gaelic Society of Inverness.
Old Leanach Cottage is now kept by the National Trust for Scotland, as is the Moor, and the Old Leanach Cottage has been refurbished to look like it would have done in the 18th century.
The cottage did have surrounding barns but these were burnt down when Government redcoats found 30 wounded Jacobites seeking refuge within them. So they barricaded the barn and burnt the Jacobites alive.
