When is this event?
Research and presentation by Dr Eileen Stewart on the fascinating life of Peter Grant of Blairfindy.
The lands of Blairfindy lie on the west bank of the River Livet near its confluence with the Avon, in proximity to the remote Catholic seminary at Scalan which trained priests from 1717 to 1799 despite the anti-Catholic sentiment which abounded. Abbe’ Peter Grant (1708-1784) was a Scottish Roman Catholic priest who received training in Rome and served the Scottish Catholic Mission in Scotland and in Rome.
Reputedly a Jacobite, he later became an essential contact and cultural guide for various distinguished British subjects visiting Rome. Sir James Grant (“The Good Sir James”) was one such visitor and the insights provided by Abbe’ Peter Grant inspired him to collect treasures of art and sculpture from the continent for Castle Grant.
