Welcome to Portmahomack
Welcome to Portmahomack
We visit the deserted church of St Colman at Portmahomack on the Tarbat peninsula, and learn about its history, and how the existence of its ancient past gradually dawned through chance discovery. We describe how a local Trust formed to save the church from decay, and how their work led to one of the most important archaeological investigations to have taken place in Scotland.
