Tour Scotland Video Bagpipes And Drums Dunfermline Fife



Tour Scotland video of bagpipes and drummers in the town of Dunfermline, Fife, Scotland. Including Dunfermline Pipe Band, drums and solo pipers. Andrew Carnegie was born in the town in 1835. Among the gifts he gave to his home town, include a free library and public swimming baths. Most important of all, was the donation of the Pittencrieff Estate which he had purchased in 1903 to be converted into Pittencrieff Park. In 1888, two Dunfermline men, John Reid and Robert Lockhart, first demonstrated golf in the US by setting up a hole in an orchard, before Reid set up America's first golf club the same year, St. Andrews Golf Club in Yonkers, New York, with Andrew Carnegie one of the first members.
