Photograph Library

Over the years we have been very fortunate to have been given access to many historic photographs and permission to display them on the website.  We have now collated them into different albums.  We hope you enjoy viewing in them.

In October 2019, as Allan Kilpatrick of Historic Environment Scotland was leading a group exploring the wartime fortifications of the North Sutor, all attention was diverted by the arrival of the magnificent HMS Prince of Wales heading for the Port of Invergordon as part of a programme of sea trials.

Invergordon WW1

Invergordon WW1

The photos in this album are from the Ross-shire Journal during the 1914-1918 War. Newspaper copies had been deposited with Dingwall Museum but over the years had become rather fragile and were in danger of disintegrating and so it was felt that this valuable record should not be lost.
