Tullochard Black House, Rudha, Plockton

Image: © Jo and Steve Turner Taken: 12 Sep 1998

First mention of Plockton has been traced back to 1787 but before the 19th century there are no records of many people having lived here. It is probable that a small crofting community of three or four families did exist. Part of Tullochard this Category B Listed traditional West Highland house is 19th century and the last intact survival in Plockton. Converted from a store to a dwelling about 1998 it is shown here before conversion and you will note how here the chimney projects above roof level.
