Old Photograph Boarhills Scotland

Old photograph of cottages and people in Boarhills, Fife, Scotland. Until the late 18th century, it was known as Byrehills or Byrehill. It was likely renamed Boarhills due to an association with the " Boar's Raik, " a medieval term for lands around St Andrews. This Scottish village is located four miles from St Andrews and five miles from Crail, close to the mouth of Kenly Water with the North Sea.
