Old Photograph Barry Angus Scotland
Old photograph of a cyclist and cottages in Barry near Carnoustie, Scotland. The Parish of Barry, which was originally known as Fethmoreth, Fethmure, Fettermore or Fethmuref was originally bestowed to the monks of Balmerino Abbey in Fife by King Alexander II in 1230. The land was annexed by the crown in the Protestant reformation following an Act of Parliament in 1587 and the Bailiery of Barry was granted by James VI as a heritable gift to Patrick Maule in 1590. Ownership of the lands was granted by the King to James Elphinstone, Secretary of State in 1599 and was sold to George Maule, 2nd Earl of Panmure in 1667 The land was forfeited following James Maule, 4th Earl of Panmure's involvement in the Jacobite Rebellion in 1715.
