Fortrose
Fortrose is a community and former royal burgh in Highland, Scotland, UK. It gets on the Moray Firth, about 6 miles (10 kilometres) north-east of Inverness. The community is recognized for its messed up 13th century cathedral, and as the residence of the Brahan Seer. In The Center Ages it was the seat of the bishopric of Ross, as well as previously called Chanonry, for being the Chanory of Ross. The cathedral was largely destroyed in the mid-seventeenth century by Oliver Cromwell to give building materials for a citadel at Inverness. The risen south aisle, with bell-tower, and also a separated chapter house (made use of as the tollbooth of Fortrose after the Reformation) stay. These fragments, though moderate in scale, present substantial architectural refinement, as well as remain in the care of Historic Scotland (no entry fee). The burgh is a preferred location for attempting to detect bottlenose dolphins (see Chanonry Point) in the Moray Firth. Fortrose shares a golf links with Rosemarkie. Set on the Chanonry Ness the program stretches out right into the Moray Firth and also uses great views of Ft George. The course is popular for its trademark 4th Hole "Lighthouse". The lighthouse concerned is the Chanonry Point lighthouse which was designed by Alan Stevenson and also was first lit 15 May 1846. Public buildings in Fortrose include a leisure centre, library as well as the only secondary school on the Black Isle, Fortrose Academy. The proper enunciation of the community's name according to regional usage is with the tension on the first syllable.
