A replica 17th century turf house has been given the go-ahead to be built at the Glencoe Visitor Centre.
Highland Council planners have approved the project, which will have to wait until the current coronavirus emergency is over before it can get off the ground.
The turf house, also known as a creel house from its shape, will help give a glimpse of how people once lived in the famous glen, according to centre owners the National Trust for Scotland (NTS).
The inspiration for the turf house follows a series of archaeological digs investigating long-lost historic dwellings at Achtriachtan.
NTS recruited a team of traditional building crafts workers to work with their archaeologists on the building design.
These specialists in turf-building, heather thatching, wattle and daub, timber creel and cruck frame structures, will work with trainees and volunteers on the reconstruction.
The building will be located in the grounds of the visitor centre, which receives 300,000 visitors annually.
Lochaber Panel submitted a request in the plans for NTS to consider creating a video with subtitles and sign language of the interior of the turf house for display in the main building, recognising that it is impossible for a historically accurate replica to meet modern accessibility needs.
An NTS spokeswoman said: “We appreciate this helpful feedback and Emily Bryce, operations manager for Glencoe, will meet with the panel as soon as it’s possible to talk all of this through.
“The project timeline has been affected by the coronavirus emergency and we are updating that at the moment.
“We’ll be sure to keep the community, supporters and stakeholders up to date with the latest news.”
The project is being funded by people from around the world who donated to an appeal last year, as well as the 2020 ‘Hugs of Heather’ campaign also enable people to support the project.
