Old Photograph Crown Hotel Langholm Scotland

Old photograph of the Crown Hotel, people, shops, car and buildings in Langholm in Dumfries and Galloway, Scotland. Langholm has long been home to a thriving woollen milling trade, and at one stage there were 22 mills in the town. There has been consolidation and closure since then, but many people still earn their living in the trade. The Edinburgh Woollen Mill, seen on many a high street, is based in Langholm. The town is now best known as the birthplace of Hugh MacDiarmid and Thomas Telford, and the ancestral home of Neil Armstrong.
