        Fort Augustus Abbey. The year 1729 saw the construction of the Fort in the Highland village of Kilchuimen, while the Jacobites, followers of King James VII, grew in strength and numbers. After, The Battle of Culloden saw the end of the Jacobite rebellion at the hands of the Duke of Cumberland. The Fort, therefore held again by the British. In 1876, the Lovat Estate the owners of the fort, offer the fort by way of donation to St Benedictine monks were in search of a site for a monastery. Most notable of their work, is the refurbishment of the front section of the fort. Schooling up to 60 students, the Old Schools centre point is the Clock Tower. Standing 110 feet tall, it is a testament to the work of the monks.The closure of The Abbey took place in 1988 due to lack of funds and a change in the Scottish Education system. The Lovat Estate, after seeing the return of the abbey to their ownership, went to sell it to a consortium. This consortium in turn sold the Abbey to The Santon Group.
