Description:What became of the peoples evicted from their traditional homes and moved to the north coast of Scotland during the Highland Clearances of the late 18th and early 19th centuries? Frank Bardgett, formerly the Church of Scotland minister for Strathy and Halladale, tells the story of what came after the Sutherland Clearances in relation to the various presbyterian congregations created to serve the dispossessed. Connections between the 1843 Disruption of the Scottish Kirk and the creation of the crofting communities are discussed.A revised and extended version of an out of print 1990 pamphlet (‘North Coast Parish: Strathy and Halladale’), this new e-book After the Clearances is intended to assist appreciation, not just of the past, but also of the area as it is now. Why are there four, small, church buildings so close to each other in Strathy, a sparsely-populated section of the north coast? Why is what population there is housed to the north of the main road? Why is the glen of the Strathy empty of homes while Strath Halladale has crofts and houses along its length? What connections are there between the inns, hotels and churches of the area? 16 maps, photographs and drawings illustrate the text.Besides his ministry in Sutherland, Frank Bardgett has served the Church of Scotland as Community Minister in Orkney, as Secretary-Depute for the Board of National Mission, and as Moderator of the Presbyteries of Caithness, Orkney and Abernethy.
