In 1745, after raising his standard at Glenfinnan, Bonnie Prince Charlie stayed overnight at Fassfern and in the morning he plucked a white rose from a bush at the front of the house and attached it to his bonnet before leaving. This rose became his emblem and the symbol for The Jacobite Cause "The White Cockade".
