Old High Church from Huntly Street

Old High Church Inverness Scotland from Huntly Street, originally uploaded by conner395.

There has been a church on this site for 900 years and the site may also have been the location for the first church in Inverness following St columba's preaching from (probably) this spot in 566.

In the aftermath of the Battle of Culloden (april 1746) the church was used to house Jacobite prisoners, and those sentended to death were executed in the graveyard.

Sadly the floral clock is awaiting attention.

For information on the church and its congregation see the Old High Church website.
