Abstract/Summary

Elements of the mid-eighteenth century designed landscape around Culloden House near Inverness, played a significant role in the Battle of Culloden in 1746. Since then, many features connected to the battle had been lost. In 2018, new evidence of them was discovered by Historic Environment Scotland during work in updating the inventory of the historic battlefield.
