Brahan Seer

He is better known, however, for his connections to Brahan Castle near Dingwall, and the Black Isle in Easter Ross.

Ferintosh, Black Isle

Confusingly, Urquhart is the name of the parish but due to amalgamations a Ferintosh "Parish" Church is at nearby Conon Bridge, whereas the former Urquhart Parish Church is close to the Ferintosh Burn (see below).

Muir of Ord

The Glen Ord Distillery is one of the few remaining whisky distilleries on the Black Isle.
