In the most magical part of the Scottish Highlands sits Rannock Moor, and at the northern end of the moor is the mighty Glencoe, with is legions, massacres and murderous history it dwarfs its surroundings and always lives up to its magnificent reputation.

The Massacre of Glencoe (Scottish Gaelic: Mort Ghlinne Comhann) took place in Glen Coe in the Highlands of Scotland on 13 February 1692, following the Jacobite uprising of 1689-92. An estimated 30 members and associates of Clan MacDonald of Glencoe were killed by government forces billeted with them, on the grounds they had not been prompt in pledging allegiance to the new monarchs, William III of England and II of Scotland and Mary II.

Thanks Sylvia, I know of nowhere else that has the capability to just stop you in your tracks and take a deep breath and just feel the chilling history?
