Former house, Highbridge

Former house, Highbridge
A very small hamlet in the Highlands, next door to Spean Bridge, Highbridge is the site of the first action of the Jacobite rising of 1745, the Highbridge Skirmish, when a small number of Keppoch MacDonalds fooled a company of troops led by Captain Scott into thinking the bridge was heavily defended.

This old post-mediaeval lime-mortar rubble/stone-built cottage with a corrugated tin roof is believed to have been an inn in General Wade's time.
