Old travel Blog photograph of fishing boats returning to the harbour in St Andrews, Fife, Scotland. During medieval times and through to the 16th century the harbour saw significant development with the construction of the original stone built piers and quays to serve the many travellers and merchants of the time; the town developing as an important academic, ecclesiastical and trading centre. These days the harbour is home to a small, but growing, flotilla of pleasure craft and a smaller fishing fleet that in its heyday would have numbered fifty vessels and more.
