Caen Highland Township - 1813 |
During the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries the inhabitants of many small farming communities in the Scottish Highlands were forced to leave their homes. Under the guise of improvement landlords drove out traditional subsistence farmers and created a much less densely occupied landscape. One of the communities affected by this process of ‘clearance’ was the township of Caen in Sutherland. Caen was located in the lower part of the Strath of Kildonan. This area was cleared particularly brutally by representatives of the Duke of Sutherland between 1813 and 1819. Several families resisted the clearances and soldiers were sent from Fort George to maintain order. Today only a few foundations indicate where a thriving farming community once stood. This reconstruction shows the Caen township as it may have looked in 1813, just before the families who lived and worked here were forced out from the Strath of Kildonan. A collaborative project between Open Virtual Worlds, a research team within the School of Computer Science, University of St Andrews, and the Timespan Museum. Digitisation funded by the EU Northern Periphery and Arctic Programme 2014-2020 through the “Connected Culture and Natural Heritage in a Northern Environment” (CINE) project. |

Helmsdale - 1890 |
During the nineteenth century the village of Helmsdale in Sutherland was one of the largest centres for herring fishing in Scotland. The village and harbour were built around 1818 as part of efforts at economic development by the Sutherland Estate. The new fishing port was intended to provide employment and housing for families who had been forcibly driven out from farms in the Kildonan area during the Highland clearances.This reconstruction shows how Helmsdale may have looked in about 1890, when the herring trade was still thriving. Fish was unloaded on the shore and then taken along to the curing yards, where it was processed and packed into barrels for transport to other parts of the United Kingdom and overseas. Herring from Helmsdale was sent as far away as the West Indies – where in the early nineteenth century it formed part of the diet of slaves working on the plantations.

Kildonan - Iron Age Roundhouse |
During the Iron Age the Strath of Kildonan in Sutherland was home to many small farming communities. The relatively mild climate of this period enabled the cultivation of barley, wheat, and oats, and the keeping of horses, sheep, and cattle. Although much of the land had been cleared for agriculture, areas of woodland survived (providing shelter for deer, wild boar, and wolves).The Iron Age residents of Kildonan lived in circular roundhouses, made of stone and turf, with conical thatched roofs. Hut circles from these long ago dwellings can still be seen today. More than 350 hut circles have been identified in Kildonan.The roundhouses provided shelter for humans and animals. They were focused around a central hearth, with bays for sleeping and stalls for animals towards the walls of the house. Roundhouses were common throughout the British Isles. However, many of the roundhouses in Kildonan have specific regional variations – including passageways in the walls.This reconstruction shows how roundhouses near Caen in the Strath of Kildonan may have looked about 2000 years ago. The dwellings are set within a wider landscape, which was already profoundly shaped by human activity. Partial deforestation, and the impact of growing crops and grazing animals, made this Iron Age environment far from its original wild state.

Skriðuklaustur Monastery - 1550 |
Skriðuklaustur was the last Catholic monastery to be founded in Iceland before the Reformation. In June 1500 the farm of Skriða (in the valley of Fljótsdalur in eastern Iceland) was given to a community of Augustinian canons. However, there had already been religious activity on the site for some years before the official grant. According to local legend, a fifteenth-century priest was going to visit a dying man in the valley of Fljótsdalur when he realised he had lost the bread and wine needed for the sacrament. A boy was sent out to look and miraculously found a full chalice of wine, and a paten holding the bread, standing on the grass by the farm at Skriða. A chapel was built on the site where the bread and wine were found. Later, the Augustinians located their church in the same place.During the mid-sixteenth century religious change was imposed on Iceland by Christian III of Denmark. The Danish government forcibly introduced Protestantism, and in 1554 the monastery at Skriðuklaustur was closed and the lands given to a Lutheran pastor. The buildings occupied by the Augustinians fell into ruins, although the church continued in use for some generations. The site was eventually deconsecrated in 1792. In the early twentieth century the writer Gunnar Gunnarsson bought Skriðuklaustur and built a house not far from the monastic remains. Both the monastic site and the house are now part of a cultural institute which is open to the public.This digital reconstruction shows the monastery at Skriðuklaustur just before its closure in the 1550s. Both the exterior and interior have been reconstructed, revealing the probable appearance of spaces such as the dormitory, infirmary, kitchen, store-rooms, chapter-house and church.

Glacier Trail – c.1550 |
In the year 1550, the monastery of Skriðuklaustur owned farms in the East-fjords in Iceland. Some were bought while others were donated to save the souls of relatives that passed away. One of the monastery's estates was in the Southeast of Iceland, on the other side of the great Vatnajökull glacier. To get there from Skriðuklaustur you had to travel for more than 100 kilometers and cross the glacier. This estate was one of the most important for the monastery because it was a fishing site for the Icelandic cod. The monastery sent their men there to fish for part of the year, and the catch was dried for storage. The men brought back some of the fish to the Fljotsdalur valley where it provided important nutrition for the patients and people of the cloister. However, the majority of the catch was probably exported to Europe with Hanseatic ships as a financial resource for the monastery. This reconstruction takes you along the glacier trail from Skriðuklaustur to Hálsahöfn and Borgarhofn, the route that the fishermen travelled centuries ago. Along the path, you’ll see farms, a stave church, longhouses, the peak of the glacial, and the fishing site. In the 16th century, the Vatnajökull glacier was not the same hindrance that it is today, but one can wonder if changing climates will make this area passable again.

Downpatrick Head |
Just a few miles north of Ballycastle, on the edge of the earth overlooking the wild Atlantic, lies the rugged, windswept outcrop of Downpatrick Head.
Now a Signature Discovery Point on the famed Wild Atlantic Way, the area provides unparalleled views of the ocean, including a unique vantage point over the Stags of Broadhaven. A majestic sea stack rises tower-like from the sea, with its centuries of layered rock providing shelter to thousands of nesting sea birds. |

Caen Pre-Clearances Township 1813 |
During the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries the inhabitants of many small farming communities in the Scottish Highlands were forced to leave their homes. Under the guise of improvement landlords drove out traditional subsistence farmers and created a much less densely occupied landscape. One of the communities affected by this process of ‘clearance’ was the township of Caen in Sutherland. Caen was located in the lower part of the Strath of Kildonan. This area was cleared particularly brutally by representatives of the Duke of Sutherland between 1813 and 1819. Several families resisted the clearances and soldiers were sent from Fort George to maintain order. Today only a few foundations indicate where a thriving farming community once stood. |

Helmsdale Fishing Village 1890 |
During the nineteenth century the village of Helmsdale in Sutherland was one of the largest centres for herring fishing in Scotland. The village and harbour were built around 1818 as part of efforts at economic development by the Sutherland Estate. The new fishing port was intended to provide employment and housing for families who had been forcibly driven out from farms in the Kildonan area during the Highland clearances. |

St Barbara Statue |
3D model of an icon statue of St. Barbara, found in pieces during the excavation of Skriðuklaustur. This statue was made in Utrecht, the Netherlands, in the first half of the 15th century. St. Barbara is usually believed to provide protection against rockslides, earthquakes, fires, and high body temperatures. During the severe plagues of 15th-century Europe, the focus shifted to emphasise her role against feverish illnesses. Thus, she became one of the fourteen saints whose roles were to protect people against the impacts of the plagues that were spreading at this time. The statue is made from terracotta and has a light brown/beige colour. The decoration on the statue seems to have been painted red at one point.

Stone Bowl |
3D model of a stone bowl found in a Pictish cairn at Dalcharne, in the Strath of Kildonan, in 1853. The vessel comprises an oval bowl with one broken short lug-like, perforated handle. It is made from a soft rock, similar to soapstone, and has concentric and unusual repeated wheat sheaf decoration. The blackening at one at one end of the bowl may signify burning reside and its possible alternative use as a lamp. Dated 500BC-500AD. Physical object held at the Timespan Museum. Part of the Iron Age Kildonan reconstruction.
