Tour Scotland Photograph Rain Clouds North Queensferry Fife

Tour Scotland photograph of rain clouds over North Queensferry, Fife, Scotland. This Scottish village takes its name from Saint Margaret of Scotland, the wife of King Malcolm III of Scotland, who is said to have established the village to ensure there would be regular ferry crossings across the Firth of Forth for the benefit of pilgrims travelling to St Andrews. Margaret is said to have regularly used the ferry crossing, when travelling between the then capital Dunfermline, and her chapel in Edinburgh Castle: St Margaret's Chapel. From around this time, the crossing became known as the Queen's Ferry. The last ever commercial ferry crossing of the Queen's Ferry left Hawes Pier, South Queensferry on the evening of 3rd September 1964, and docked at North Queensferry shortly after. The very next day, HM The Queen opened the new Forth Road Bridge, and 800 years continual use of the Queen's Ferry were finally brought to a close.
