Old Photograph Crofters Cottage Glencoe Scotland

Old photograph of a Crofters cottage in Glencoe, Scotland. Glencoe was the location of the infamous massacre of the Macdonalds by the Campbells. It has been associated with the mighty Clan Donald since the 14th century, when Angus Og McDonald of Islay bestowed the Glencoe lands on his son Iain Abrach, the ancestor of the Glencoe McDonalds. The McDonalds of Glencoe held their lands under the feudal superiority of Stewart of Appin, and later the Campbells of Argyll.
