It was located on the edge of the Town Centre, directly opposite St Michael’s Mound, where St Columba of Iona is said to have preached in 565 AD. (There has been a church on that site since Celtic times, where the Old High Church currently stands)There has been a church on this site for 900 years and the site may also have been the location for the first church in Inverness following St columba's preaching from (probably) this spot in 566.In the aftermath of the Battle of Culloden (april 1746) the church was used to house Jacobite prisoners, and those sentended to death were executed in the graveyard.The history of the Old High Church (including the Blackfriars Abbey): www.oldhighststephens.com/html/old_high_histo ry.html |
