As you can see, it's too late to save this once beautiful place, but another battle is raging in Glencoe. The National Trust for Scotland want to build a burger bar and shopping mall on the site of an historical massacre. HELP TO STOP THEM NOW - before Glencoe ends up like Urquhart Castle: wrecked and ruined for greed.

Goodbye beautiful Urquhart Castle, Loch Ness Sadly Hysterical Scotland has been allowed to destroy world renowned Urquhart Castle.The systematic abuse of the democratic process by Prime Minister Tony Blair, his henchmen and his cronies has effectively allowed local government (elected by local people) to be trampled. We are now witnessing the results of the most sick and crass kind of quango-led greed. The pictures above show you how Urquhart Castle looks now. Here's how it all looked a few months ago. The site has been ruined forever in a few short months. Boycott Historic Scotland NOW! If this upsets you, please email: webmaster@lochness.co.uk and we'll make sure that your comments are passed on to the local MSPs who are still fighting to stop this carnage. Ask yourself: Do you really want to spend your holiday and your money visiting a vast building site that is witnessing the destruction of one of the most beautiful and famous parts of the Highlands of Scotland? There are plenty of other places to visit nearby (why not take a look at Ochaye! for some suggestions?) Historic Scotland's own remit says: "we safeguard and protect the nation's built heritage". What a sham, what a sick joke. Look at these pictures - they are just the start of the ruination of Urquhart Castle - we have been promised up to 70 huge lorries per day trucking through our tiny local village as they dump some 80,000 cubic metres of slag on this beautiful site. Shame on you Historic Scotland. You are a disgrace. Please keep visiting these pages. We will update the pictures (which will get worse and worse and worse) as this obscenity of a project continues. We will also add videos and sounds - so that you can properly see and hear what you can expect if you visit the building site. We ask you to protest by staying away from Urquhart Castle and Historic Scotland's other properties now and forever. They have shown that they want nothing but your money and they will smash this country's history, pride and treasure in any way necessary to take as much of your cash as possible. Don't give Historic Scotland your time or your money - these pictures show how much they deserve from you. ACT NOW: BOYCOTT HISTORIC SCOTLAND Don't visit their properties.
