Old Photographs Whiting Bay Isle Of Arran Scotland

Old photograph of Whiting Bay, Isle of Arran, Scotland. The village is approximately 3 miles south of the village of Lamlash. Whiting Bay is the third largest village on the island, after Lamlash and Brodick, and was once the site of the longest pier in Scotland. Like all villages on Arran, tourism is important to the village. To the north of the village at Kings Cross Point between Lamlash and Whiting Bay is an Iron Age fort known locally as the Viking Fort. According to local legend, this is the site where Robert the Bruce mistook farmers' fires on the mainland as the signal to launch his campaign. This site was also the location of a Viking ship burial excavated in the earlier 20th century. Of interest to folks with ancestry, genealogy or Scottish Family Roots in Scotland who may wish to visit one day.

Old Selkirk. Selkirk owed its expansion in the mid-nineteenth century to its mills and the workforce they required, but this period of industrial fervour lasted only a century. However, in the town's heyday there were prosperous shops and myriad sporting clubs and associations. In this history of the town, this heyday is recaptured through more than fifty period photographs. Subjects include the public hall under construction, curling at Thorniehall, the horse-drawn coal cart on Curror Street, the railway station, the Corn Mill on Station Road, manoeuvres of the Lothian & Border Horse, the opening of the footbridge to Ettrickbank, the Common Riding, and the various rugby, soccer and cricket clubs.
