Tour Scotland short 4K Autumn travel video clip of a dreich, which is a Scots word for dull and cloudy weather, road trip drive, with Scottish bagpipes music, East along the narrow James street on ancestry, genealogy, family history visit to the Town Hall in Cellardyke in the East Neuk of Fife, Britain, United Kingdom. Cellardyke Town Hall is a municipal structure in Tolbooth Wynd. The first municipal building in Cellardyke was a tolbooth which was completed in 1624. A new mercat cross was carved at that time and erected outside the building in 1642. The tolbooth was used as a prison as well as being a regular meeting place for Kilrenny Burgh Council. By the early 1880s, the tolbooth had become dilapidated and the burgh leaders decided to demolish the tolbooth and to erect a new building on the same site. The foundation stone for the new building was laid by the provost, Robert Watson, on 5 April 1882. It was designed by David Henry and Jesse Hall of the St Andrews firm of Henry and Hall, built in rubble masonry and was officially opened as Kilrenny Town Hall on 19 September 1883.. The design involved an asymmetrical main frontage of five bays facing Tolbooth Wynd. Internally, though it was closed on this day, the principal rooms were the burgh chambers and a meeting room for the St Ayles Masonic Lodge on the ground floor, and the main assembly hall on the first floor. I was raised in this old fishing village on the East coast and attended Cellardyke Primary School and Waid Academy in Anstruther. I was raised a Dyker. The Fife Coastal Walking Path goes through Cellardyke and runs from the Forth Estuary in the south, to the Tay Estuary in the north and stretches for 117 miles. Of interest to folks with ancestry, genealogy or Scottish Family Roots in Scotland who may wish to visit one day. Find things to see and do in Scotland where you are always welcome. When driving on Scottish roads in Scotland slow down and enjoy the trip. Meteorological Autumn ior Fall s different from standard and astronomical Autumn and begins September 1 and ends November 30.
