Tour Scotland wee video of old photographs of Portree, Scottish Gaelic: Port Rìgh, the largest town on and capital of the Isle of Skye in the Inner Hebrides. Port Rìgh translates as king's port, possibly from a visit by King James V of Scotland in 1540. Prior to the 16th century the settlement's name was Kiltaraglen, the church of St. Talarican, from Gaelic Cill Targhlain. Portree is the home of a fictional professional Quidditch team in the Harry Potter universe called the Pride of Portree. The film Made of Honor partially takes place in Portree. A sweeping shot of the town's main street is shown. Portree has a harbour, fringed by cliffs, with a pier designed by Thomas Telford. The Royal Hotel is the site of MacNab's Inn, the last meeting place of Flora MacDonald and Bonnie Prince Charlie in 1746.
