16th April 1746. Date of the Battle of Culloden, the last battle fought on British soil, and the end of the Jacobite rising in 1745. The battle was the last attempt to place a Catholic Stuart monarch back upon the throne. The aftermath of the battle saw the destruction of the highland way of life, and also a subsequent crackdown instigated by the Duke of Cumberland, earning him the title ‘the butcher of Cumberland’. In the same year, an act of parliament was passed outlawing the wearing of tartan, and highland dress.

Culloden visitor center. This was so informative & so worthwhile. The battle of Culloden is a really exciting story & it shaped the history of the U.K. We learned a lot inside & saw a lot of artifacts, including shot, buttons, & broken buckles pulled from the battlefield itself. Experts were even able to discern which shot belonged to which army based on factors such as sizing & determine where the combat became more close-range based on the positions of found objects. After absorbing as much information as we could about the location we were about to see, we stepped out onto the Culloden moors. #nofilter #noedit #travel #uk2019 #scotland2019 #uk #scotland #trips #yay #fun #adventure #pretty #unitedkingdom #nature #thehighlands #scottishhighlands #culloden #the45 #jacobites #battleofculloden #cullodenbattlefield #scottishmoors https://www.instagram.com/p/BtmAP9JnQtm/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=11x0se5859kny

We wake up for our last full day in Scotland. We decide to do a quick walk through Inverness, heading by the Inverness Cathedral and by the Inverness Castle stopping first at Chisholm’s Highland Dress where of course I must spend a small fortune on a new tartan, dubh, and Quaich. The proprietor of the store allows me to look at the Chisholm book, where Chisholms, Chisholmes, Chisums, Chisms and other variants of the name have signed throughout the year. I’m unable to sign it as my last name is Taylor though I am a direct descendent. Still it was fun to look at.

We head out stopping next by the Old High St. Stephen’s church which has both Chisholm’s and McBean’s buried there. It seems Tammy and I were meant to be friends as our ancestors always seem to be near one another. We walk along River Ness and then back to Angus (the car) in order to head out to the Culloden Battlefield.

We arrive at Culloden only to find that our families once again are drawn to one another. Clan stones on the front walkway are next to one another. We head through the museum part which is interesting enough and tells of the Jacobite rising. I take pride in seeing my family’s name on the Culloden battle map. It is next to the MacLean’s and Maclachlans who I believe my friend Tammy’s clan the McBeans fought alongside.

We head into a film presentation in the museum. The idea is that you find what these men endured in the less than 1 hour long battle. You begin looking at the screen and the charge ensues. It is brutal. You turn to look away only to find another screen with more British and Jacobite men brutally killing one another. You turn again and the slaughter does not stop. The film is only a few minutes in length, but you realize the carnage within the first few seconds. It is a brilliant depiction of the war that gets you ready for the solemn battlefield you are soon to see.

You walk along the land, knowing back then it was mostly bogs, potentially the worst fighting ground. As you walk along you witness red flags (the British regiment) and blue flags (the Scottish regiment). You walk past the Culloden memorial but before that the stone grave markers of fallen clan men. Maclean. Maclachlan. Athol Highlanders. Clan Stewart. Clan Cameron. Clan Mackintosh. Clan Fraser. Then you see several Mixed Clan stones. It is incredibly somber.

We walk out to the Chisholm Clan regiment marker, pay our respects and walk the remaining path of all the other Jacobite regiments. We walk past a stone that denotes, “cha b’ ann leinn a mhain ach le sinnsearan is siol.” It is Gaelic for, “not for us alone but for ancestors and progeny.” These were a proud people. They were loyal to their country and held honor and loyalty above everything. These are my people.

Enough somber moments for the rest of the trip we head onto the Clava Cairns. The cairns are a Bronze Age circular chamber tomb cairn. Basically a 4000 year-old cemetery. We are somewhat interested because it was supposedly one of the sites that inspired Craig na Dune in the tv show Outlander. We quickly do a walk thorough as a tourist bus pulls in shortly after us.

We shuffle off to Cawdor Castle. Now Cawdor is the ancestral home of the Campbell’s of Cawdor, near Nairn. The castle is best known for its literary connection to William Shakespeare’s tragedy Macbeth, which is funny because historically it is impossible based on timelines. Still it is a beautiful estate and the drive through Nairn is lovely.

By the time we finish this day we are exhausted and famished. We walk around to Hootenanny’s before finding a table at Johnny Foxes. We get a quick bite and of course more beer before deciding to call it a night. On the way we see above the door of a bar, “Friendship is like whisky, the older the better. Too much of anything is bad, but too much of good whisky is barely enough.” This is a perfect sentiment to describe a perfect trip to Scotland with my Best friend.
