Old photograph of children and cottages on the main street in Dunshalt by Ladybank near St Andrews and East Neuk of Fife, Scotland. The name comes from the Gaelic, " dun " meaning a fortification, with the prehistoric fort still visible. Many duns were hill forts, for example Dundee refers to the Pictish hillfort on the Law; but they could also be built on imposing rocks by the sea, for example Dunottar and Dumbarton.
