Victor Naumenko's Pictures of Dornoch

Dornoch Cathedral

The Cathedral was founded in the 13th century by Gilbert de Moravia, Bishop of Caithness. It suffered from fire damage in the sixteenth century, was partially restored in the seventeenth century and the restoration was completed in the eighteenth century by architects William Leslie and Alexander Coupar at the instigation of Elizabeth, Countess of Sutherland. Madonna was married at Skibo castle about 3 miles west of Dornoch. Her son, Rocco, was baptised in the Cathedral the night before the wedding.

Decorative fountain

This decorative fountain made of painted cast iron and featuring a cherub holding a water jar stands outside Dornoch Cathedral and is very much to the Victorian taste. The inscription states that it was presented by Miss Georgina Anderson in 1892.
