Old Photograph Stonehaven Scotland

Old photograph of the harbour and houses in Stonehaven, South of Aberdeen, Scotland. This town in Aberdeenshire, was a Jacobite town in the Jacobite rising of 1715 and it was a safe base for the retreating Jacobite army to stay overnight on the night of 5 February 1716. In the Jacobite rising of 1745, part of the Episcopalian north east, was again reliably Jacobite and it was one of the north eastern fishing ports where reinforcements, plus money and equipment were periodically landed from France.
