Plan for £8m redevelopment of Timespan museum in Helmsdale

Advertisements

Helmsdale, on the east Sutherland coast, was built in the early 19th Century as part of a planned resettlement for communities moved off land during the Highland Clearances.

The village later became a significant base for the herring industry, and its harbour supported fishing, gutting and curing operations.

Timespan opened in 1987 and its collections and displays reflect the history of Helmsdale and the surrounding area, including the Clearances, herring fishing and fossils found along the nearby coastline.
