Old Photograph Of Lendalfoot Scotland

Old photograph of cottages and people in Lendalfoot, Ayrshire, Scotland. The village is located on the curve of Lendalfoot Bay, a sandy beach looking towards Island of Arran and Ailsa Craig. Though Lendalfoot is a haven for tourists, it was discovered that it is was also a haven for birdlife by Glasgow Naturalist Charles Berry. He documented his findings in a fascinating paper called The Birds of Lendalfoot, which was published in the journal of the Natural History Society of Glasgow in 1908.
