Glencoe Massacre Monument 1 * In 1691, King William the Third, recognising the resurgence of the Jacobite cause, ordered all the clan chiefs to sign an oath of allegiance by 1st January 1692. MacIain of Glencoe delayed signing the oath and when he arrived in Fort William on 31st December 1691, he found he had to go to Inveraray. Difficult travelling and the absence of a sheriff meant that MacIain did not sign the oath until 6th January 1692... Continued * 2048 x 1536 * (1.52MB)

Glencoe Massacre Monument 2 * MacIain returned to Glencoe believing his signature was accepted. It was however decided to punish MacIain. Campbell of Glenlyon led a group of some 128 soldiers who stayed with the MacDonalds for some 12 days and then turned on their hosts in the early morning of 13th February, killing 38 of them whilst some tried to escape into the snowy hills. The infamy of the massacre is “murder under trust” murder of those who had offered them hospitality. * 2048 x 1536 * (1.49MB)

Glencoe Massacre Village * In the background is where they would have escaped to. * 2048 x 1536 * (1.55MB)

Bucket Bridge * That is a bucket bridge. No one knows who put it there for why or when. It is kind of a mystery. This was in the The Secret Glen. * 2048 x 1536 * (1.5MB)
