Old photograph of a cottage, houses and whisky shop on Moodie Street in Dunfermline, Fife, Scotland. The thatched cottage was the birthplace of Andrew Carnegie, the weavers son who became the richest man in the world. The town was first recorded in the 11th century, with the marriage of Malcolm III, King of Scotland, and Saint Margaret at the church in Dunfermline. As his Queen consort, Margaret established a new church dedicated to the Holy Trinity, which evolved into an Abbey under their son, David I in 1128.
