Into a life tragically cut short at the age of 54, Hugh Miller packed careers as a stonemason, bank accountant, geologist, church reformer, journalist and author. His remarkable history is told in this cottage where he was born. Here are Miller's personal belongings, his geological hammer, microscope, mason's mallet and beautiful fossil collection.
The cottage garden was redesigned in 1995 using a colourful range of native plants which Miller would have known from his walks around the Cromarty area.
A video film charts the achievements of this largely self-taught ‘lad o'pairts'.
