Old photograph of the Post Office and MacDonald grocers shop in Aviemore, South of Inverness, Scotland. Aviemore is a town and tourist resort, situated within the Cairngorms National Park in the Highlands. Prior to 1790 it was in an exclave of the county of Moray and from 1890 to 1975 it was in the county of Inverness-shire, until the later date being within the Civil Parish of Duthil and Rothiemurchus. The village began to grow as a result of it becoming a railway junction in 1898, following which the Highland Railway became a major employer constructing housing for its staff and the Aviemore Hotel.
