Old Photograph Paddle Steamer Skye Scotland
Old photograph of a paddle steamer at the harbour in Portree, Isle of Skye, Scotland. Portree has a harbour, fringed by cliffs, with a pier designed by Thomas Telford. Telford was born on 9 August 1757 at Glendinning, a hill farm 3 miles west of Eskdalemuir Kirk, in the rural parish of Westerkirk, in Eskdale, Dumfriesshire. His father John Telford, a shepherd, died soon after Thomas was born. Thomas was raised in poverty by his mother Janet Jackson.
