Old Photograph Cornhill Scotland

Old photograph of houses and cottages in Cornhill, a small village close to Banff, Scotland. Kerr's Pink potato was created by J. Henry of Cornhill, in 1907.

Cornhill is an ancient surname which is also recorded in the spellings Cornall, Cornell, Cornwall, and Cornwell. These are nearly all locational in origin and appear to derive from Cornwall or Cornhill. Cornhill is usually associated with the site of the famous market in London, England where corn was traded for centuries, and as such may be occupational for somebody who worked there.
