Tour Scotland Photograph Bullough Mausoleum Isle Of Rum

Tour Scotland photograph of the Bullough Mausoleum, Isle of Rhum, Inner Hebrides, Scotland. An enormous Doric temple of polished sandstone containing three large sarcophagi, an echo of classical Greece standing in splendid isolation against the sublime backdrop of the Cuillin; also, a monument to the inflated ego of the Bulloughs. For much of the 20th century the name became Rhum, a spelling invented by the former owner, Sir George Bullough, because he did not relish the idea of having the title " Laird of Rum ".

Old Photograph Cardhu Whisky Distillery Speyside Scotland

Old photograph of workers in Cardhu Whisky Distillery in Speyside, Scotland. The distillery was established in 1824 by John Cumming, who had previously been a whisky smuggler. The distillery was sited high up on Mannoch Hill, above the River Spey due to the peat softening the water. It started as farm distillery working on a seasonal basis after the harvest had been gathered. It was mainly run by Helen Cumming who used to sell bottles of whisky to passers-by through the window of their farmhouse. Due to the hill the farm distillery was on, Helen could see the police coming and would throw flour on herself and say that she was baking bread to disguise the smell. She would then offer them tea and fly a flag outside so that the other nearby distilleries could see and take prompt action.

Old Photograph Drying Tweed Outer Hebrides Scotland

Old photograph of a crofter drying Tweed on Island Of Harris, Scotland. For centuries the islanders of Lewis and Harris, the Uists, Benbecula and Barra have woven cloth by hand calling it clò-mòr in the original Gaelic or big cloth. Originally this handmade fabric was woven by crofters for familial use, ideal for protection against the colder climate of the North of Scotland. Surplus cloth was often traded or used as barter, eventually becoming a form of currency amongst the islanders. The original name of the cloth was tweel, Scots for twill, it being woven in a twilled rather than a plain pattern. A traditional story has the name coming about almost by chance. Around 1830, a London merchant received a letter from a Hawick firm about some tweels. The London merchant misinterpreted the handwriting, understanding it to be a trade-name taken from the river Tweed that flows through the Scottish Borders. Subsequently, the goods were advertised as Tweed, and the name has remained ever since.

Old Photograph Travelling Berry Picker Perthshire Scotland

Old photograph of a travelling Berry picker North of Blairgowrie, Perthshire, Scotland. Soft fruit growing, mainly raspberries and strawberries developed in the 20th century and became a very important part of the town's economy with Smedleys opening a cannery in Haugh Road, Adamsons a jam factory in Croft Lane and huge quantities of table berries and pulp being despatched to markets and jam factories throughout Britain. Berry pickers were brought in by bus from Perth and Dundee, and large encampments were set up on farms for pickers from further afield, mainly from the Glasgow area, who made this their annual holiday. They were joined by the travelling community who congregated here for the berry season.

Old Photograph Fishermen St Kilda Scotland

Old photograph of fishermen outside a cottage on St Kilda, Scotland. The St Kildan diet was not of fish, as one might expect, as the seas were too treacherous. Instead they survived on seabirds, gannets and fulmars mostly, which they caught and used for food, and many other things. The meat was dried and stored and the eggs were eaten; their oil provided fuel for lamps, and their feathers were stored and sold to the few visitors who came to the island. The St Kildans were very economical, they had to be. Every part of the bird was used: the beaks became brooch-pins, the bones were fashioned into needles, the skins of gannets were turned into shoes.

Old Photograph Ferry From Glenelg To Kylerhea Isle of Skye, Scotland

Old photograph of the ferry from Glenelg to Kylerhea on the Isle of Skye, Scotland. A ferry service has linked Kylerhea with Glenelg on the mainland for centuries. The first car ferry was introduced in 1935, with a turntable located on the boat. Despite the existence of the now toll free Skye Bridge, this ferry service, undertaken by the MV Glenachulish, still runs during the summer months, due to its popularity as the more scenic and traditional route between Skye and the mainland. This service is now community owned but used to be run by Murdo Mackenzie for almost twenty years. For centuries, Kylerhea was the crossing point for cattle reared across the Hebrides on its way to the markets of the mainland. Drovers would reach the village and wait for suitable tidal flows across Kyle Rhea, often recharging with a meal or sleep in The Old Inn, situated close to the crossing point.



You can still sail over the sea to Skye on the ferry from Glenelg to Kylerhea on the Isle of Skye, Scotland.

Old Photograph Loom Weaving Orkney Scotland

Tour Scotland Photograph Video Buachaille Etive Mhor Scotland

Tour Scotland photograph of Buachaille Etive Mhor in Glencoe, Scotland. Buachaille Etive Mòr, Scottish Gaelic: Buachaille Eite Mòr, meaning " the great herdsman of Etive, generally known to climbers simply as The Buachaille or The Beuckle, is a mountain in the Highlands of Scotland. Its almost perfect pyramidal form, as seen from the A82 road when travelling towards Glencoe, makes it one of the most recognisable mountains in Scotland. Scenes for the new James Bond film Skyfall were shot in the shadow of Buachaille Etive Mor.

Tour Scotland Photograph Dun Telve Broch Glenelg Scotland

Tour Scotland photograph of Dun Telve Broch, Glenelg, South of Kyle of Lochalsh, Scotland. Dun Telve is one of the best preserved Scottish brochs. A broch is an Iron Age drystone hollow walled structure of a type found only in Scotland. The stone ruins here stand over thirty feet tall, and but a part of the story of this broch. Modern excavators found holes for stout wooden posts in the floor, hinting at a now vanished, raised floor platform, or possibly even two, covered by a sloping roof, with a central hole for letting light in and smoke out. A ledge high on the inner wall face may have carried the outer edge of such a structure. It seems likely that the inhabitants lived in reasonable comfort in this wooden structure rather than in the cramped, damp and murky galleries within the stone walls, these being used for storage. The stone stairway, too, may have been unimportant in daily life, with access to the upper levels and wallhead by wooden ladders. Even as partly ruined structures, the brochs of Glenelg bear witness to the ingenuity of Scotland's Iron Age farmers faced with a threat whose nature we can only guess at.

Old Photographs Dirleton Scotland

Old photograph of cottages in Dirleton, East Lothian, Scotland. Dirleton is notable for Dirleton Castle, a well preserved medieval fortress. It was built in the middle of the twelfth century by a branch of the Anglo-Norman family of De Vaux, a family with its origins in Rouen, Normandy, which had settled at Dirleton during the reign of King Malcolm IV, born 1153, died 1165. They also held the manor of Golyn, Gullane, and parts of the lands of Fenton. In 1298 when King Edward I of England invaded Scotland, no place was able to resist him except Dirleton castle. After a resolute resistance it surrendered to forces under Antony Bek, Bishop of Durham. It was still in English possession in 1306. When Oliver Cromwell invaded Scotland in 1650 the castle was, after a gallant defence, taken by Lambert and by him partially dismantled and reduced to a ruinous state.

Old Photograph Robert Louis Stevenson Cottage Braemar Scotland

Old photograph of the holiday cottage of Robert Louis Stevenson in Braemar, Scotland. Robert Louis Stevenson was on holiday in 1881 in Braemar. To amuse his step-son one day, Stevenson got out his paint box and between them, painted a map of an imaginary island. Suddenly, according to Stevenson, the place became alive and characters seemed to suggest themselves. There and then, the author set to work on a story, now famous, called Treasure Island. The cottage still stands today on Glenshee Road.

Old Photograph Muthill Perthshire Scotland

Old photograph of cottages, houses and people in Muthill, Perthshire, Scotland. This ancient village was once an important religious centre and the site of a Celí Dé monastery. The church here also served for a time as a seat of the Bishops of Strathearn before the building of the cathedral at Dunblane in the 13th century. The village was largely destroyed in the 1715 – 1716 Jacobite rising, by Jacobite troops retiring after their defeat at the Battle of Sheriffmuir, being rebuilt in the 1740s as it lay on the route of General Wade's military road through Strathearn. David Brydie Mitchell was born in Muthill, on October 22, 1766. As a young man, he inherited land in Georgia from his late uncle. He moved to Georgia in 1782 after the American Revolutionary War to Savannah, Georgia, to claim it. Enthusiastic about the new country, Mitchell read the law with established attorneys and passed the bar. He was elected as mayor of Savannah in 1801 and made connections statewide. Mitchell was appointed as Attorney General of Georgia. He moved to Mount Nebo Plantation, near the state capital of Milledgeville. He served three terms in the Georgia General Assembly, two as a representative and one in the Senate. Mitchell married Jane Mills in 1792, and according to family records the couple had six children: William, John, Sara, Edward, Mary, and David. He resigned from his third term as governor to accept appointment by President James Monroe as the U.S. agent to the Creek Indians. One of Mitchell's responsibilities was the negotiation of the Treaty of the Creek Agency in 1818, by which the Creek ceded land to the United States. He was accused in the American Importation Case of 1820 of smuggling slaves into Creek and US territory, in violation of the 1808 law against the American slave trade. While his direct responsibility remains controversial, Mitchell allowed those engaged in this illegal activity to seek refuge for their captives at the agency he supervised along the Flint River. The incident resulted in a major inquiry and his dismissal by President James Monroe in 1821.Beginning in 1828, Mitchell was appointed to serve as the inferior court judge of Baldwin County, Georgia. He was elected as Baldwin County's State Senator in 1836. He died on April 22, 1837.
