Less than 10 miles east of Inverness, long known as the “Capital of the Highlands,” Tornagrain might appear to be just another of Scotland’s beautiful small towns. A few hundred small buildings are tucked next to each other, mainly with white walls and slate roofs, and most between one- and four-stories high.
Many of the homes approach the proportions of a cubic square. Several units are joined together townhouse-style. Like many such towns, it was built by a major local landowner and peer of the realm, in this case, the earl of Moray.
