    My visit to Culloden Moor today.

    The cairn was constructed by Duncan Forbes of Culloden in 1881.

    Each one of the stone grave markers is engraved with a clan name.

      @Sheal thanks for posting this. It brought back quite a few memories for me. I'm now patiently waiting for other attractions of the area... :)

          Hi Sheal,
          That looks such an atmospheric place, thanks for sharing.

          PS.... I thought you were house-hunting, is that cottage within your price range ? :)

            The moor was time out yesterday. I have to get back to house hunting but there will be more pictures at a later point. :)

            I am but the brain needs time out now and again. :biggrin: The cottage and all that surrounds it is in the hands of the National Trust so no chance of buying it. To many ghosts as well. :doh::)
