Old Photograph Seafield Street Cullen Scotland

Old photograph of houses and town hall on Seafield Street in Cullen, Moray, Scotland. The organs of the wife of Robert the Bruce are said to have been buried in the old church here after her death in Cullen Castle. Robert the Bruce made an annual payment to the village in gratitude for the treatment of his wife's body and its return south for burial. Scottish poet Robert Burns stayed overnight at, what was then, the old town of Cullen in 1787 during his tour of the Highlands.
