Old Photographs Aberchirder Scotland

Old photograph of Aberchirder located six miles west of Turriff in Aberdeenshire, Scotland. This Scottish village was founded in 1764 by Alexander Gordon, the 5th laird of Auchintoul. Until 1823 its official name was, in fact, Foggieloan after a small farm community on the site of which it was built. In 1823 the village was renamed Aberchirder after the 13th century Thanes of Aberkerdour of Kinnairdy Castle.
