The large oil painting displayed in the Mackay Room is of John Mackay, "Hereford" who was born and spent his first school years at Rogart, Sutherland before moving to Hereford. He grew up to become an engineer of note who built railways in South America and became a millionaire. He returned to Scotland in the 1880's and helped set up the Clan Mackay Society and the Crofter's Commission.
