A doll's pram from Skelbo House 85 cm long, 42 cm wide and 64 cm high, with a brown rain/sun hood. The pram belonged to Sarah Alexander (nee Wignall) who resided at Skelbo House, located on Skelbo Farm near Dornoch. The exact age of the pram is unknown but it is believed to be early 20th century. The pram was given to Cathie MacKay the housekeeper in the 1950's. Cathie lived on Skelbo Farm with her young children and the pram provided much enjoyment to them. It moved to Embo in the early 1970's where it ended up in the attic and remained there until Cathie's death in 2018. It was donated to Historylinks Museum in 2021 by Cathie's children Colin, Shona and Kay.
