The collection today represents the rich and varied material and non-material culture from the geographically large area of the Highlands and Islands from the 17th century to recent times.  The emphasis is on rural and domestic life, where representation is through groups of unique, vernacular artefacts including ‘domestic life’ from bakestones to box beds, ‘agricultural’ from subsistence farming through to developed mechanised farming, ‘crafts and trades’ from early wooden looms through to ‘travellers’ items and whisky distilling and ‘vernacular architecture’ from 18th century timber frames to 20th century community kit buildings.
