A Royal burgh and port town in the parish of RosemarKie, Ross-shire. It stands 8 1/2 miles south of Invergordon Ferry, 10 1/4 S. [South] South-west of Cromarty, and 10 1/2 N. [North] North-east of Inverness. Its site is at the eastern extremity of the Black Isle road, on the north side of the Moray Firth & nearly opposite Fort George from which it is distant 2 1/2 miles. It is composed of two towns RosemarKie and Chanonry, which are about half a mile distant from each other, but have been politically united in one burgh. The former of these is of Considerable antiquity, having been erected into a royal burgh by Alexander II. Chanonry is so called from its having been the canonry of Ross, where the bishop had his residence. It is finely situated on an elevated plain commanding an extensive prospect of the Moray Firth; and a tongue of land runs out between it and RosemarKie into the firth called Chanonry-Ness or Fortrose point. The two towns were united by a Charter granted by James II in 1444 under the Common name of Fortrose; and that charter was ratified by another by James VI. in 1592 and confirmed, with greater immunities, by the same monarch in 1612 *** The town Council comprises a provost, three bailies, a treasurer, a dean of Guild, and eight Councillors. Fortrose unites with Inverness, Forres & Nairn in sending a member to Parliament. Population in 1841, 1.082; in 1861, 928. Houses 187" Quoted from Fullartons Gazetteer. (The ancient name of Chanonry has become obsolete but that of RosemarKie is still in use - Fortrose being generally used now in all private & public documents instead of Chanonry) |

This name applies to the ancient Cathedral of Ross two small parts of which edifice are still standing. They consist of the south aisle to chancel and nave, and the detached Chapter house. The former is not roofed & considering its great age is in good preservation & affords a fine idea of ancient architecture. The latter has been partly rebuilt & turned into a Courthouse for the burgh of Fortrose. The rest of the structure was demolished by Cromwell, who sent the stones to Inverness for the erection of a fort there which bears his name. There are three stone Coffins in the aisle & two stone fonts & several other remains of an interesting nature still intire indicative of the great beauty & importance the structure possessed originally - whether it was dedicated or not cannot be ascertained as very little information regarding it is Known in the neighbourhood.
"The seal of the Cathedral, or Diocesan Seal, is yet preserved and used as the public seal of the burgh, with this inscription in Saxon character" + Scapituli scou Petri et Bonefacii de Roseomarkin". St Peter stands on it with his Keys, and Boniface with his crook in excellent order" See Stat Acct. [Statistical Account] for further information. |
