July 13th Photograph Perth Scotland

July 13th photograph of Perth, Scotland. Sitting on the banks of the River Tay, Perth is the historic county town of Perthshire. Perth has been known as The Fair City, since the publication of the story, Fair Maid of Perth by the Scottish writer Sir Walter Scott in 1828. During the medieval period, the town was also given two alternative names, St. John's Toun or Saint Johnstoun by its English speaking inhabitants in reference to the main church dedicated to St John The Baptist.

Tour Scotland Photograph Claret Jug St Andrews

Tour Scotland photograph of the Claret Jug on Swilcan Bridge, Old Golf Course, St Andrews, Fife, Scotland. The awarding of the Claret Jug dates from 1872, when a new trophy was needed after Young Tom Morris had won the original Challenge Belt, presented by Prestwick Golf Club, outright in 1870 by winning the Championship three years in a row. Prestwick had both hosted and organised the Championship from 1860 to 1870. In 1873 Tom Kidd became the first winner to be actually presented with the Claret Jug after winning the Championship.
