Old Photograph Crown Street Aberdeen Scotland
Old photograph of a Bank, shops, cars, buildings and people on Crown Street in Aberdeen, Scotland. The Hammermen of the Incorporated Trades, representing the jewellery fraternity, laid out Crown Street, Diamond Street, Silver Street and Golden Square within the 1st stage of development West of the Denburn. The plan for Crown Street was to create an important street, which is now the main thoroughfare through the area, to connect with Union Street but without the huge expense of bridging Windmill Brae, the ancient route into Aberdeen prior to the construction of Union Street. Blog post of interest to folks with ancestry, genealogy or Scottish Family Roots in Scotland who may wish to visit one day.
