William Gladstone, who served as prime minister four times between 1868 and 1894, often visited the estate after it was bought by his family in 1829. He is said to have been so taken by it that he tried, unsuccessfully, to persuade his father to leave it to him over his older brother, Thomas. Liberal politician Gladstone was the oldest ever prime minister when he finally resigned at the age of 84. He also served as Chancellor of the Exchequer on four occasions and was committed to low public spending and to electoral reform. In his final years as a politician he proposed home rule for Ireland twice but was defeated by the House of Commons in 1886 and denied by the House of Lords in 1893. Gladstone believed his early experience in estate management was useful when he was chancellor.

Old Photograph Guddling For Trout In River Tay Highland Perthshire Scotland

Old photograph of men guddling for trout in the River Tay in Highland Perthshire, Scotland. Guddling is a Scots word used to describe attempts to catch fish with your bare hands. Also known as Trout tickling it is the art of rubbing the underbelly of a trout using fingers. If done properly, the trout will go into a trance like state after a minute or so, and can then easily be thrown onto the bank of the river. The technique was a common practice used by boys, poachers and working men in times of economic stress, particularly during the 1930s depression. Poachers using the method required no nets, rods or lines or any other incriminating equipment if apprehended by the police or gamekeepers. In Scotland the technique is sometimes called ginniling. The practice is currently illegal under most circumstances in Britain. A related method of catching catfish by hand is called noodling in the U.S.A.

Old Photograph Clarkston Scotland

Old photograph of cottages, church and car in Clarkston in East Renfrewshire, Scotland. When a new road from Paisley to East Kilbride was built through the area in the 1790s, a toll point was set up where it crossed what was then the main route from Glasgow to Kilmarnock. A man named John Clark built a house at the toll, and the name Clarkston came to be used for the locality. The Maxwell family, owners of the Williamwood Estate, on which Clarkston was situated) advertised the creation of a new village there in 1801, but initially it grew slowly. Clarkston at this time had no industry of its own, and villagers were mainly employed in the mills at nearby Netherlee. The area began to expand more rapidly following the opening of Clarkston railway station by Busby Railways in the village in 1866, and later the expansion of the Glasgow tram network to Clarkston in 1921. The 1920s also saw the final breaking up of the Williamwood Estate, encouraging further house building.

Loch Fyne is a sea loch on the west coast of Argyll and Bute, Scotland. It extends 40 miles inland from the Sound of Bute, making it the longest of the sea lochs. Loch Fyne has a reputation for its oyster fishery, and as a consequence the loch has given its name to the locally owned Loch Fyne Oysters and to the associated Loch Fyne Restaurants. It is also notable for its herring fishing industry, and hence the famous Loch Fyne Kipper, originally caught using the drift net method. In the mid 19th century, Loch Fyne was the centre of the battle between the traditional drift net fishermen and the new trawl net fishermen who sprang up around Tarbert and Campbeltown in 1833.

Tour Scotland video of a night walk in the rain to visit the Fish and Chip Shop in Scone by Perth, Perthshire, Scotland.

Fish and chips became a stock meal among the working classes in Scotland and England as a consequence of the rapid development of trawl fishing in the North Sea, and the development of railways which connected the ports to major industrial cities during the second half of the 19th century, so that fresh fish could be rapidly transported to the heavily populated areas. British fish and chips were originally served in a wrapping of old newspapers but this practice has now largely ceased, with plain paper, cardboard or plastic being used instead.

The earliest recorded reference to this Scottish church is in a charter dated 1272, in the time of Alexander III, when a vicar is appointed to the church of Fordyce. A further early charter dated 1351 confirms Fordyce as a common church belonging to the Cathedral of Aberdeen.
