Old Photographs Aberuthven Scotland

Old photograph of cottages and people in Aberuthven, Perthshire, Scotland. This Scottish village was populated by home weavers during the last century, most of the villagers being employed in the nearby Auchterarder textile mills after they were built in 1872, the weaving being done by hand looms previously. The cloth was exported as far afield as China, New Zealand and India as well as having a healthy local trade.
