Scottish Clans: The story behind Clan Macpherson
TODAY Macphersons cover the world.
The clan association membership stretches from New Zealand to Sweden, across the United States and Canada to Australia and Borneo, as well as England, Wales and Scotland.
They are traditionally associated with Badenoch, where the Clan Macpherson House and Museum is at Newtonmore.

Hello, these are the home pages of the Monklands Ramblers Club, one of the largest R.A. clubs in Scotland, and the first Scottish R.A. club on the Internet! We are based in the Monklands area of Central Scotland in North Lanarkshire, some 12 miles east of Glasgow. The two major towns in the area are Airdrie and Coatbridge, and it is from these towns that the majority of our 150+ members come from. There are also a significant number of members from other areas of Lanarkshire, in particular, Hamilton and Blantyre.
The club was formed in the summer of 1985 by a few local people who were interested in hill-walking. At that time the walks were fairly informally organised and people travelled to the walks in cars. Nowadays we are organised into a proper club with a full elected committee. Our members consist of people from all walks of life ranging in age from 20 - 75. We run a 53 seater coach or minibus to all of our walks (which are always covered beforehand by the leaders), we have walks programmes which cover Scotland and northern England and cater for all levels of fitness, and we occasionally go as far afield as Austria for special one-off walking holidays. Monklands Ramblers also has a very active social scene with regular dances, quiz nights and ten-pin bowling outings organised by the committee.
The club has actively and successfully campaigned for rights of way to be maintained and enhanced in the North Lanarkshire area. We have also become very much a part of the local community with frequent acknowledgement of our activities in the local press. The club is extremely successful simply because of the effort and support shown by the members. We consider ourselves a friendly bunch of people who always have a great time irrespective of the unpredictable Scottish weather! We would also be delighted to welcome along any new walkers who may be considering joining us - so come on, contact us today!

Old Photographs Newtonmore Highlands Scotland
Tour Scotland wee video of old photographs of Newtonmore, Scottish Gaelic: Baile Ùr an t-Slèibh, a village in the Highlands. The village is only a few miles from a location that is claimed to be the exact geographical centre of Scotland. Newtonmore has a golf course on the banks of the Spey. Newtonmore was one of the locations used in the filming of Monarch of the Glen and is in Monarch Country. Scenes for the new James Bond movie are being filmed near Newtonmore. Of interest to folks with ancestry, genealogy or Scottish Family Roots in Scotland who may wish to visit one day.
