Finding 17th Century JACOBITE ERA TREASURE in Scotland!! #scotland #scottishhistory #outlander
As well as being a tour guide and history lover my other passion is metal detecting. What better way to learn about Scottish history than by digging it up by yourself.
This incredible find dates to around 1690 a time of terrible turbulence in Scotland as religious wars took hold and Catholic James VII and II was deposed in favour of his Protestant daughter and son in law William and Mary.
Scotland had a lot of support for James in both the catholic and Episcopalian Clans and over the next 70yrs what became known as the Jacobite rebellions kicked off with several attempts to restore the Catholic Stewarts back as rightful monarchs of Scotland and England ending in the final uprising of 1745...

    I lived in a wee west highland croft house n the 1950's, and attended a school with 11 pupils from primary 1 to primary 7, with 1 teacher. I sometimes walked to school, but always walked to Sunday school n the wee church across from the school! We branched into tourists in the summer, after building a bathroom to the house. We lived in the byre with beds in at one end, and the cow and heifer in the other end! It was not partitioned at that time, as we did not know how the letting of the croft would go? I had a chanty under the bed to use, as the chemical toilet was in the henhouse, and yes the hens were in there too! Our kitchen with a gas ring was in the wee dairy which had a sink in it and could boil the kettle on! We had a corrugated iron roof on the byre, and when it rained there was a considerable racket. (noise). I could go on and on, but fear that I'll bore you all to tears! Ha-ha! .old Tich. in my 70's!

    Hugely informative, brilliantly presented video. Reekie Linn is barely known but must be the most spectacular falls in Scotland. The definition of "hidden gem". Thank you for a great piece of work.

    Truly enjoy your videos, my ancestors were Scottish and I was, raised by my Nova Scotia Scottish Grandmother and great gran so its nice to see their historical past. I've lived in Denver for yhe past 36 years. Last year we had a very rare sighting of a Pine Marten in the western sunburb of Lakewood, located in the foothills of the Rockies. They are referred to as Martens here and for one to travel down the wooded mountains is very uncommon.

    My grandparents homestead in Alabama, USA. They built a barn and they moved in with the kids and chickens, goats, mules, pigs and lived that way until they were able to build a house. My grandfather never bought anything he could make. He bought more land and was eventually a very prosperous farmer in the area. The house had a detached kitchen in case of fire and outside privy, a well with water tower and windmill. There was a smoke house for preservation of meats. Eventually, there were two barns in addition to the house. In the 50’s my parents moved back to take care of my grandmother. Dad put in an inside bathroom. There was a pump in the kitchen. There were fireplaces everywhere and one child had died when bed clothes caught fire . They had ten children, but only 5 grew to adulthood. Scottish ancestry: MacRae

    Hi!! I’ve been following your metal detector site for some time, and followed this channel too! Well the time has finally come, and I have booked my dream vacation to England & Scotland Halloween week and I wanted to know-what tour company do you work with and/or how do I make arrangements ?!
