\nOn their first evening, they came to our community exhibition about Dun Mhuirich, that we held with Kilmartin House Museum. There is an Iron Age fort there, but during a recent archaeological dig, Roddy (the archaeologist), thinks that he has found the remains of a medieval house below the fort that was lived in by a family, who were originally from Northern Ireland.

\nLittle is known about life in medieval times in Argyll. That’s why they are called the Dark Ages (and not because of all the knights!). Because of this we tried to show the community and our friends from Portrush what life was like at Dun Mhuirich during this time, so we dressed up in the medieval costumes we had made, showed our display boards that tell everyone about aspects of medieval life and exhibited our series of paintings which depict medieval times in Argyll.
\nLots of people came and it was a great success.
