Fortrose
Fortrose is a community and previous royal burgh in Highland, Scotland, United Kingdom. It is on the Moray Firth, regarding 6 miles (10 km) north-east of Inverness. The community is understood for its destroyed 13th century cathedral, and also as the home of the Brahan Seer. Between Ages it was the seat of the bishopric of Ross, as well as formerly called Chanonry, for being the Chanory of Ross. The cathedral was mostly destroyed in the mid-seventeenth century by Oliver Cromwell to offer structure materials for a citadel at Inverness. The vaulted south aisle, with bell-tower, as well as a separated chapter house (used as the tollbooth of Fortrose after the Reformation) remain. These pieces, though small in range, present considerable building improvement, and also are in the care of Historic Scotland (no entrance cost). The burgh is a popular area for attempting to detect bottlenose dolphins (see Chanonry Point) in the Moray Firth. Fortrose shares a fairway with Rosemarkie. Set on the Chanonry Ness the training course extends right into the Moray Firth and provides great sights of Fort George. The program is popular for its trademark fourth Hole "Lighthouse". The lighthouse concerned is the Chanonry Point lighthouse which was developed by Alan Stevenson as well as was first lit 15 Might 1846. Public structures in Fortrose include a leisure centre, library and also the only senior high school on the Black Isle, Fortrose Academy. The appropriate pronunciation of the community's name based on local use is with the stress on the initial syllable.
