Ruthven Barracks - 1

It's about time we were all knocked into shape - yes, we are off to the Barracks!



Ruthven is an infantry barracks erected in 1719 following the Jacobite rising of 1715, with two ranges of quarters and a stable block (added in 1734).

The barracks are located 1 mile from Kingussie. They are signposted from the A9 and the A86 in the centre of Kingussie. For those travelling by train, it is a 15 minute walk from the railway station past Kingussie High School.
