Highland – Caithness & Sutherland
In Person
The Herring Mart opened in 1892 to give shelter and office space to local fish salesmen. It was the first of its type in the country and as far as we know, is the only one still in existence. In the herring fishing days samples of the catch were brought from the vessel to the fish salesmen to be auctioned in the veranda area.
This Doors Open Day, you are invited to see inside to explore an aspect of the Society’s work not normally seen by the public.
