Open air church, Plockton

Uploader's Comments

The Free Church broke away from the Church of Scotland in 1843 and initially its members in Plockton were left without a building for worship. Instead, they used this natural amphitheatre on the edge of the village, holding services in the open air. According to the information board services are still occasionally held here, including a wedding in 1999.
