In this episode we revisit the late 16th century and the marriage day of a young, innocent 14 year old girl, Anna Fraser, to a man twice her age. She’s a political pawn in the ongoing battle to secure the future of Inverlael. A powerful and haunting story. 

In this series of drama-documentaries with the help of Ullapool Museum, archaeologists and historical experts we’re bringing the people and stories of Balblair and Inverlael back to life. 8 snapshots, re-imagined moments in Highland history which have, until recently, been HIDDEN IN PLAIN SIGHT.
