Old Photographs Kintore Scotland

Old photograph of cottages, houses and children in Kintore near Inverurie, Aberdeenshire, Scotland. Established in the ninth century AD as a royal burgh, Kintore had its royal charter renewed by King James IV in 1506. But the area has clearly been a popular settlement since prehistoric times. Nearby are the remains of Hallforest Castle, former stronghold of the Earls of Kintore. Its Town House dates back to 1747. Kintore is the site of Deers Den Roman Camp and is thought to relate to Agricola's campaigns into Scotland.
