Old Photograph Little Causeway Street Forfar Scotland

Old photograph of cars and houses on Little Causeway Street in Forfar, Angus, Scotland. Forfar was home to a very successful textile industry during and after the Industrial Revolution. In the late 18th century the firm of William and John Don & Company was founded in the town. Another important textile firm was J & A Craik & Company, Linen and Jute Manufacturers, which was based at the Manor Works in Forfar. Craiks was started in 1863. Bon Scott, rock n' roll singer from the band AC/DC. was born in Forfar. Of interest to folks with ancestry, genealogy or Scottish Family Roots in Scotland who may wish to visit one day.
