Old Photographs Gifford Scotland

Old photograph of Gifford, East Lothian, Scotland. The village takes its name from Sir Hugo de Giffard of Yester, whose ancient Scoto-Norman family possessed the baronies of Yester, Morham, and Duncanlaw in Haddingtonshire, and Tayling and Poldame in the counties of Perthshire and Forfar. The Mercat Cross was built in 1780 and is still standing in the centre of the village. The present church building was built in 1710.
