Old Forfar

Meer over het boek

There are pictures of everything from a cattle market taking place in the High Street to elephant tightrope walking in our book on Forfar. Blacksmiths, shopkeepers posing outside their shops, weavers from Boath's works and an elegantly dressed wedding group in front of one of the town's co-op's are among the subjects that have been selected. George Brodlie's ropeworks and the Strathmore Woollen Company's works illustrate the town's manufacturing history, while all manner of pictures show lost streets and buildings, along with events and personalities from the town's past.
