Old Photographs Auchenblae Scotland

Old photograph of Auchenblae, Aberdeenshire, Scotland. A Scottish village in the Kincardine and Mearns area of Aberdeenshire, formerly in Kincardineshire, Scotland. It is featured in Lewis Grassic Gibbon's novel, Sunset Song. The name is a derivation from the Gaelic for " Field of Flowers " possibly due to the growing of flax in bygone times. The village was known for its weavers, a whisky distillery and the annual Paldie's Fair horse market.
