Area Guide For Avoch

Avoch is a harbor-town found on the south-east shoreline of the Dark Isle, on the Moray Firth. Ormond Manor or Avoch Stronghold was a fortification based on the site and served as an illustrious château to William the Lion; passed on to the Morays of Insignificant then Archibald the Horrid, Master of Galloway, upon his marriage to Joanna de Moravia in 1362. Relatives of Archibald, were to take the title of Earl of Ormonde from the mansion. Legend has it that the town was established by survivors of the Spanish Task force. Valiant Scottish-Canadian traveler Sir Alexander Mackenzie, the first European to investigate the immense Canadian waterway now known as the Mackenzie Stream, crossing North America twice, to the Cold Sea in 1789 and Pacific Sea in 1793, resigned to Avoch in 1812 where he passed on in 1820 and was covered in the old Avoch Area churchyard. Avoch was the area of Rosehaugh (Pittanochtie) House, maybe the most glorious chateau house in the Scottish High countries until it was destroyed in the 1959.
