Old Photographs Muir of Ord Highlands Scotland
Tour Scotland wee video of old photographs of Muir of Ord, Scottish Gaelic: Am Blàr Dubh, a village in the Highlands. It is situated near the western boundary of the Black Isle, about 9 miles west of the city of Inverness and 5 1⁄2 miles south of Dingwall. The village is served by Muir of Ord railway station which is a railway station on the Kyle of Lochalsh Line and the Far North Line. It is the location of the sole remaining crossing loop on the single line between Dingwall and Inverness, Highlands. It was once the junction of a branch railway to Fortrose. The station building and platform canopy were erected in 1894. Passenger services on the branch ceased on 1 October 1951, but the branch remained open for freight until 13 June 1960. The Glen Ord Distillery is one of the few remaining whisky distilleries on the Black Isle. Highfield House by Muir of Ord was built around the middle of the nineteenth century, it was home to the Mackenzies of Highfield. The house met with disaster in 1947, when it was burned to the ground. Now all that remains are the gate lodges and the Dower House, a building which was converted from a traditional thatched farmhouse, into the residence of the lady dowager. This later became the Mackenzies' new family home

Old Photographs Alford Aberdeenshire Scotland
Tour Scotland wee video of photographs of Alford, Scottish Gaelic: Athfort, a large village in Aberdeenshire. Situated just south of the River Don. It lies within the Howe of Alford, also called the Vale of Alford. Charles Murray was born on 27 September 1864 in Alford. He was a poet who wrote in the Doric dialect of Scots. He was one of three rural poets from the north east of Scotland, the others being Flora Garry and John C. Milne, who did much to validate the literary use of Scots. In 1924 he settled in Banchory, not far from where he was brought up. There he died in 1941. The narrow gauge railway, built from salvaged equipment from the New Pitsligo peat moss railway, was proposed in 1979 and opened in 1980. Originally it ran for 1.9 miles from Haughton Park station through Murray Park Woods. Then in 1984 another line was run from Alford station, alongside Alford Golf Course, to Haughton Park where there is a platform. However, the original Murray Woods line was then closed. The current station building is on the site of the original granite structure which was demolished after British Rail closed the line. The passenger platform is the original. A small railway museum is housed in the railway station building. The original locomotive shed was situated to the east of the station but this has also now been demolished. To the west of the station the granite carriage shed of the previous railway is now used by the Alford Valley Railway. The Grampian Transport Museum and Alford Heritage Centre are nearby. Of interest to folks with ancestry, genealogy or Scottish Family Roots in Scotland who may wish to visit one day.
