Old Photograph Crofter Highland Perthshire Scotland

Old photograph of a crofter in Highland Perthshire, Scotland. Within crofting townships, individual crofts were established on the best land, and a large area of lesser quality hill ground was shared by all the crofters of the township for grazing. Crofters also harvested Peat which was an important source of fuel. The women often spun and dyed wool as well as hand knitting and weaving. Of interest to folks with ancestry, genealogy or Scottish Roots in Scotland.
