In January of 2018 we learned that the plan to film in Cambusbarron had officially been abandoned. “The Outlander production team earlier sought permission to build [the Fraser’s Ridge] set in woods outside Cambusbarron, near Stirling. “However, this plan is no longer going ahead.” https://www.scotsman.com/news/outlander-cast-and-crew-return-to-fife-village-1-4669949 It is unclear whether the Outlander production team withdrew their request, or whether the Cambusbarron Community Council denied them permission to film in the area. Basically, it doesn’t matter. Cambusbarron is NOT an Outlander Season Four film site. To avoid renumbering all subsequent chapters, we replaced the original, full-length Cambusbarron chapter with a starkly abbreviated version in Outlandish Scotland Journey Part Four. Having spent weeks researching and writing it, however, we hated the idea of simply discarding it. So, we didn’t! Beginning on the next page, you’ll find this chapter’s original, 2017 manuscript.
