Old Photograph The Square Huntly Scotland


Old photograph of The Square in Huntly, Aberdeenshire, Scotland. Huntly Square is surrounded by fine buildings many dating back to the first half of the 18th century and it has been the focal point for the inhabitants of Strathbogie and the surrounding area over the centuries. Originally a market Square by the end of the 18th century The Square was to see the livestock markets move to the edges of the town, with other forms of markets becoming less common. However the Feein’ Markets a traditional country Hiring Fair held originally for the employment of the local farm labour was not to end until the onset of the Second World War.
