History report for CCT October 2024

The story of James Dingwall, General Merchant, work place has been added to the “Shops, Trade and Industry” section of the website. This is a compilation of Bethune family photographs made available by Angus Bethune. This “industrial” aspect of the community is the area next to the Church now occupied by Craobh woodworking enterprise.

In support of the Primary School pupils creating a logo for the Findon Hall we have been approached for more information regarding the Millennium Cairn and time capsule at the Findon Hall. Also, it would be helpful to learn more about the background to the tree planted in honour of Frances Fowler, a former Secretary to the Findon Hall committee. Reminiscences and memories can be submitted through history@culbokiect.org.

Old Noticeboards. All of the above would have been easily dealt with if we, in the Ferintosh Community, had had the foresight of using the Highland Archive facilities to store the initial series of the Noticeboard. But, we didn't so we are asking if any of our readers have stored away in the attic copies from 1991 until 2002 that we could digitise and add to the few copies we have.

When accessing the site it is useful to check “Recently changed pages” displayed in the right-hand column.
