Tour Scotland Photograph Buckie House Corner Anstruther


Tour Scotland photograph of Buckie House corner in Anstruther, East Neuk of Fife, Scotland. This house has been on its corner site in my hometown since 1692. In the 1840s, a local slater and plasterer called Alex Bachelor lived in the house and he covered the front of it with a wealth of shells. Shells are often called " Buckies " in Scotland.
Bachelor charged people four pennies to see him laid out in his shell adorned coffin.

Tour Scotland Photograph Provand's Lordship Glasgow


Tour Scotland photograph of Provand's Lordship in Glasgow, Scotland. The Provand's Lordship today stands as a medieval-period historic house museum located at the top of Castle Street in the shadow of the Glasgow Cathedral and Glasgow Royal Infirmary. Provand's Lordship is the oldest remaining house in Glasgow, the cathedral is the oldest building. Provand's Lordship was built in 1471 as part of St Nicholas's Hospital by Andrew Muirhead, Bishop of Glasgow, the Muirhead coat of arms is still visible on the side of the building. Provand's Lordship was likely to have been used to house clergy and other support staff for the Cathedral, providing temporary housing. The house later became occupied by Lord of the Prebend of Barlanark and perhaps was shared with the priest of St. Nicholas Hospital and Chapel and became known as Lord of Provan and then Provand’s Lordship.
