Many people were interested to learn about the work carried out by our conservation team on a Mary Queen of Scots letter and we were delighted that the BBC were among those who wanted some additional information from Senior Conservator, Richard! 👇 bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…
Today marks the anniversary of the bloody clash that ensued on the 19th of April 1882 which became known as The Battle of The Braes and played a vital role in land reform in Scotland in the following decades. Check out our online exhibition for more: highlifehighland.com/archives-servi…
#Archive30 This barbed & tanged arrowhead dates from 2,000 BC found in 1984 in a peat bank on a croft near Dunvegan, Skye. Carefully crafted from pale grey translucent flint. The small projecting tang would have been fixed into a notch in the arrow shaft with resin & binding.
An insight into some of the work recently undertaken by our conservators on a 1546 Mary Queen of Scots letter with images of the document before, during, and after treatment as well as in image giving more detail on the process. #TeamHLH
Wick became a Royal Burgh in 1589. We are very lucky to hold the crown precept of sasine on erection of Wick into a Royal Burgh (BW/3/5) here at the #caithnessarchive. Royal burghs were created by the crown with the crown as feudal superior. #wick #HLHMoreThanLeisure
Today's @ARAScot #archive30 theme is #archivebuildings - and we are going outside the box again, because why not? Here we have a photograph from 1908, of the 40 horse power winch used in the building of the British Aluminium factory at Kinlochleven, and its operators. (L/D90)
#UnusualArchives from #Skye Although badly degraded, this artefact is identified as a Roman trumpet brooch. Distinctive bow shape with a marked expansion at the head where the hinge/spring of the pin was contained & protected, this example dates from 2AD #Archive30 @ARAScot
Skye team gave a talk to Skye Stroke Friends on the Donald Gillies collection, including his notebook detailing Memorials of the ’45, including Ann McAlister’s memories. Anne resided in the original Kingsburgh House when Bonnie Prince Charlie had sought sanctuary there.
Mary Nicolson and William Sinclair got married on 26/4/1940 in Wick. Their wedding cake cost £2 10s. In today’s money the cost of the cake would be over £100. #ArchiveFoodandDrink #caithnessarchive
Our @HighlandHistory offers a huge range of online #SoundandVision . Including one of our favourite photographic collection Duncan MacPherson. Here is a sample of some film we had conserved & digitised, could this be the first camper van coming to Skye?😉 #Archive30 @ARAScot
Today's @ARAScot & Records Association Scotland - ARA Scotland #Archive30 is #typicalday . This morning we have a customer accessing Burgh of Fort William Town Council Minutes in the Lochaber Archive Centre's search room.
We are always working on making more collections accessible and #SomethingNew we have been digitising are a series of slides and photographs taken by Mr Turner during his 26 years as a teacher of Geography in Portree High School, 1966 - 1992. #Archive30 @ARAScot

Dr Thomas McKean will speak on a panel entitled "Futureproofing Archives and Collections" at the North Atlantic Song Convention in Edinburgh on Friday 22 March 2024. 🎵 For registration and information visit: northatlanticsong.com/events/convent…
Despite the 11 March deadline there is apparently still time to register for this event on using archives for public history. I'll be talking about the importance and the pitfalls of archival research on colonialism when colonial history is subject to culture war.…
Happy #InternationalWomensDay everybody. One of our all-time favourite photos from our Photographic Archive is this undated photo of a very young suffrage campaigner on the streets of Stromness #Orkney, taken by Robert H. Robertson early last century.
@HLHArchives @ClaireSquires Really interesting article and amazing experience 🙌
There’s a lot we can learn from history, and I could have spent weeks in this building delving into various areas of interest.
From the work that goes into supporting people to discover their family history and property records, to letters that give us an insight into the Clearances, migration, and incredible characters from history, there is so much to learn here.
📜 The @HLHArchives is an incredibly important place, housing all kinds of information and people who work hard to document and uncover Highland history.
A love letter to my favourite archive
Grace Wright, PhD researcher, reflects on her recent internship at the Skye and Lochalsh Archive Centre, have a read to see the collections she has been working on. highlifehighland.com/skye-and-locha…
Also available in @WHFP1 this week. Thank you to @sgsah for funding this fab opportunity (and of course to the magnificent staff at Skye & Lochalsh @HLHArchives for putting up with me)
@HLHArchives Happy memories of staying with Cathy Macfarlane and family on their croft as a teenager with my sister during summer holidays. Gaelic spoken, milking cow, peat cutting and fishing. Including Runrig concert in Dunvegan!
@HLHArchives Probably one of my relatives in that picture, thats where some of my dad's side came from. Great image!
Love this account book. Neish's post office passed telegrams for agitators during the Crofters' War warning of police movements - his assistant, Mary MacKenzie, stood up to Sheriff Ivory, refusing him access to telegrams which would have helped him catch the crofters' informant
Viewfield House Account Book from Alexander Neish, Post Office, 1879-1881. His shop was on Wentworth Street, selling a wide range of goods besides acting as postmaster. Portree Hotel showing the Post Office, run by Neish, & Roderick MacMillan’s Draper’s Shop on the ground floor
Maybe one for @HighlandHistory or @HLHArchives ???
