74 Donald Macgillivray

What We Do In The Winter

This episode is a conversation with Donald Macgillivray of Pennygown. We talk about his childhood, go way back into his family history, talk about drove roads and the last cattle drove off Iona to Falkirk, the changes he’s seen in agricultural practice over his career, his work with Highland cattle, abandoned villages and places long forgotten, his dear friend – the late and much missed Hugh MacPhail and so, so much more. Episode links and more can be found on our website at whatwedointhewinter.com It's this sort of knowledge that passes so swiftly if it’s not passed on and I am deeply indebted to Donald for his time and sincerity in sharing these stories with me. Thanks for listening!
