Nairn is
a pure gem of a holiday town seated on the Moray Firth coast
with a wonderful harbour and beach. It lies about fifteen miles east
of Inverness on the coastal route wherein
lies some pretty impressive history.
This was the area during the eleventh century in which so much was won
and lost of Scotland's Celtic culture.
This is the real country of Macbeth, for
at this time, from the east coast to the west coast, all was part of
the Moray Mormaership. In reality this is the land where killings were
done, where conspiracies were hatched, where swords were drawn and death
a constant visitor.
Malcolm II, Duncan,
Macbeth, Torfinn
and Malcolm Canmore with their followers
all played their parts in the history of this domain from
Dingwall in the west, to Fochabers
in the east and on.
Shakespeare in his day, found enough
history from these parts to make a bestseller and I'm sure that you
will find a lot more.
Nairn, the
town is made up of two parts, the old town and the new town, the older
being the fishing community area, and the new, the shops and houses
to the south and west.
The old part is typically fishing with it's housing and harbour areas,
an artist's paradise, and of course the new town, a more modern system
of properties and buildings, no less attractive and in some cases very
impressive.
