Auldearn Community Timeline

In autumn 2010 an ARCH class researched the heritage of the parish of Auldearn. For thousands of years people have lived around the area, leaving evidence of a wealthy population. Some of the past millennia has survived, but much has been altered or has been destroyed. The resulting display and binder contained highlights of some of the sites, buildings and finds from the area. All numbers which have an asterix (*) were featured on the display. Further information about these and many other interesting remains of our heritage can be found in binders at Nairn Library, Nairn Museum and on loan in the community, or by consulting Highland Council’s Historic Environment Record at http://her.highland.gov.uk.
