LAUNCH LECTURE!
Cecily Spall of FAS Heritage talks about two research projects she has co-directed. Portmahomack (1993-2007) and Eilean Donan Castle (2008- ongoing) have provided a wealth of new insight into the archaeology of the late medieval period in Ross-shire. Though quite different in form and location, the two sites are richly connected by evidence for metal-working, population movement and burials and funerary sculpture. Venue: Council Chamber, Highland Council, Glenurquhart Road, Inverness. Note that Cecily will follow this talk up on Saturday with a guided walk around Eilean Donan excavations.
Suggested donation £3. Wheelchair accessible. Children welcome if with adults.
