Description
|
The museum tells the story of the Scottish fishing industry from the earliest times to the present. Displays cover the lives of the communities involved, on shore as well as at sea, boat design, fishing methods (creeling, long lining, drift netting, trawling etc.), the rise and fall of the herring industry, the controversies of the modern age. On show are boats, gear, many fine models, personal possessions and domestic items from fisherfolk and their homes, and a collection of paintings. Our photographic archive and collections contain many items relating to Highland fishing ports, boats, crews and families.
