Old photograph of Portpatrick, Scotland. Dating back some 700 years and built adjacent to the ruins of nearby Dunskey Castle, Portpatrick's position on the Rhins of Galloway affords visitors views of the Northern Irish coast 21 miles to the west, with clifftop walks and beaches both north and south. This Scottish village was founded on fishing, operating from the sandy, crescent-shaped harbour that remains the focal point of the village today. Of interest to folks with ancestry, genealogy or Scottish Family Roots in Scotland who may wish to visit one day.
