Tour Scotland photograph of Leanach Cottage at Culloden Battlefield, near Inverness, Scotland. The only surviving building after the battle of Culloden is Leanach Cottage. Now refurbished, it looks like it would have in the 18th century. The cottage did have surrounding barns but these were burnt down when Government redcoats found 30 wounded Jacobites seeking refuge within them. So they barricaded the barn and burnt the Jacobites alive.
