DescriptionMinute Books 1819-1852,1853-1869 & 1871-1908, some loose correspondence 1855-1869; and poster 1865
Administrative HistoryIt is evident from the Minute of 2 February 1819 that the Wester Ross Farmers' Club was in operation in 1817. This implies that there was at least one more minute book in existence. The Club held meetings in Dingwall every three months and in 1819 topics under discussion included: inspecting farms for the best example of ploughing, initiating a horse show and purchasing a vessel in order to carry their corn to market and to import lime and other commodities.
