Discover Dunans Castle: A tale about preservation in the Scottish Highlands on Zoom

Dunans Castle, the ancestral seat of the Fletcher clan set in the stunning Scottish Highlands, was ravaged by a fire in 2001, causing much damage to the 18th- and 19th-century structure. But in 2002, Charles Dixon-Spain and his wife, Sadie, happened to drive down the country lane and discovered the castle. Seeing beauty in the ruins, they determined to acquire it and have since set upon a course of preservation and restoration.

Charles will be joining us for an online talk from the castle in Scotland, where he now lives with his family. He will regale us with tales from his restoration adventure, which has been filled with surprises, disappointment, hurdles, and celebrations as he, along with volunteers from the non-profit, Adventures in Preservation, bring Dunans Castle back to its glory!
