Old Photograph Blackness Scotland

Old photograph of Blackness by the Firth of Forth, Scotland. This Scottish village is located 3.4 miles East of Bo'ness, 5 miles West of South Queensferry and 3.8 miles North East of Linlithgow. The village originally served as a port for nearby Linlithgow, which was a principal residence of the Scottish monarchs from as early as the 12th century. As a port, Blackness was later superseded by Bo'ness, and fell into decline from the 17th century. Of interest to folks with ancestry, genealogy or Scottish Family Roots in Scotland who may wish to visit one day.
