A day in the life of a 1700s Highland Township [Newtonmore]

16 October 2014, Starts: 11:00, Ends: 15:00

 Highland township. Highland Folk Museum, Newtonmore.

Costumed interpreters bring the 1700s township to life and show how Highlanders lived with cooking, spinning, weaving, wood working and the odd Jacobite or two. Great educational event – the township buildings have been constructed using traditional building materials and thatches based on the township of Raits (about 5 miles away). Level access for wheelchairs but the township area is mainly grass with limited paths. Bring a packed lunch or eat at the museum café.

Free.
