Old photograph of cottages, houses and children by the foreshore in Findhorn located six miles from Forres, Moray, Scotland. In the seventeenth century Findhorn was the principal seaport of Moray and ships and fishing vessels regularly sailed to and from all parts of the North Sea and as far as the Baltic Ports. Changes to the narrow and shallow entrance to the Bay created obstacles to navigation and as the size of trading vessels increased so the volume of trade to the village declined.
