Old Photograph Fisher Folks Cottage Cellardyke East Neuk Of Fife

Old photograph of Fisher folks cottage at the harbour in Cellardyke by Anstruther, East Neuk of Fife, Scotland. I was raised in this fishing village on the East coast. Cellardyke was formerly known as Nether Kilrenny, or Silverdyke, and the harbour as Skinfast Haven, a name which can still be found on maps today. The harbour was built in the 16th century and was rebuilt between 1829 to 1831. Around 200 fishing boats were once based here but much of the fleet was destroyed by a storm in 1898, with most of those left intact relocating a short way down the coast to Anstruther.
