The Highland Folk Museum by Newtonmore is an open-air museum. |
This L-shaped building included housing for humans and animals plus a shop. |
The human part included information on rationing during World War II |
animal stalls |
Railroad station |
Office and baggage storage area. |
While we were at the railroad station, a train passed. This is typical of the trains we saw. They were passenger trains. We didn't see trains hauling freight. |
Boleskine Shinty Club Pavilion |
I might have heard the word shinty before but I didn't know anything about the game. |
A one-room schoolhouse |
Pretty typical even in the states. |
I don't think the rules were quite so strict when I learned to write. |
Some things never change. |
Circa-1700 lodging |
The museum had built a whole village. |
Curling pond |
We had seen churches with signs saying Free Church of Scotland and wondered about the history. |
