The Old High Inverness has been closed as a place of worship and put on the market for offers over £150,000. The Friends of the old High want to be able to purchase the building to preserve its historical importance .The site of the Church was where St Columba preached in 565AD The tower was used as a prison for Jacobite prisoners after the battle of Culloden and executions took place in the grave yard . The very popular Outlander books written by Diana Gabaldon feature the Old High Church . The Old High also houses the Cameron Memorial and their Colours are laid down there. Under our proposals this historic past will be available for all to enjoy. We would form a multi - use space for community use .. Funding will also be required to adapt the building for our proposals while keeping as much of its integrity as possible.
