Maryburgh Conon Flooding
On a Saturday afternoon in December 1966, the local Girl Guides' Christmas Party was in full swing, when to everyone's utter amazement, a voice advised that everyone should prepare to go home because the River Conon had burst its banks and the lower part of the village was being flooded. These are some on the photos taken at the time.

Maryburgh WW1
Maryburgh 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.

The war memorial photographs on this site were originally the work of Mr John W Bruce. He has subsequently developed the website http://www.rosswarmemorials.org.uk which gives much more detail.
