Old Photographs Castletown Scotland

Old photograph of hotel, cars, shops, buildings and people in Castletown near Wick, Scotland. Much of Castletown was built during the 19th century boom years of Caithness as a source of flagstone. Much of the stone was processed in the harbour area of the village, known as Castlehill, and many of the streets of London, England, Sydney, Australia, Edinburgh and the financial district of New York City in the USA are paved with it.
