Old Photograph Aberlour Scotland

Old photograph of cottages and houses in Aberlour located twelve miles South of Elgin, Moray, Scotland. The full name of this Scottish village is Charlestown of Aberlour. The town was granted its feu charter in 1814 and began to operate its own markets. Whisky was a major industry even then and once the 1823 licensing act was passed and a longer warehousing process introduced it began to take on the more mature characteristics that we are familiar with today.
