Newtonmore museum to hold its first Outlander Day

Outlander is based on books written by US author Diana Gabaldon

A museum where scenes for the Outlander TV series were shot is to hold its first day dedicated to the show and the books it is based on.

The programme was filmed in a reconstruction of a 1700s township at the Highland Folk Museum in Newtonmore.

The museum's Outlander Day on 5 September will hold demonstrations of weaving, cooking and wood turning as well as talks about the period.

There will also be a reconstruction of a British Army red coats' camp.

US author Diana Gabaldon writes the best-selling Outlander books, which have been adapted for TV and involve a nurse from 1946 travelling back in time to 18th Century Scotland.
