Save the Old High

Overlooking the River Ness, the Old High Church has stood at the heart of Inverness for centuries — steeped in Highland history, Jacobite connections, and even Outlander fame. Now, the landmark faces an uncertain future. The community group Save the Old High Inverness is campaigning to buy and transform the building into a public space for culture and heritage. With expert backing and a reduced asking price, their vision is clear — but it all depends on rallying enough support before time runs out. -- This podcast was brought to you by Highland News and Media.
