Thatched houses at the Highland Folk Museum. The image shows a large house on the left with thatch that almost reaches the ground. There’s a much smaller house a little further away on the right and in the background is a third, with a more elaborate style of roof. There are trees on the left and hills in the background, The scene is in sunlight.

Like travelling back in time and one of the most fascinating days out anywhere in the Highlands. A small part of the huge and incredibly impressive Highland Folk Museum at Newtonmore. More pics and info: www.undiscoveredscot...
