Caption: A wee fishing village. Aberdeenshire Fall in love with Footdee

Picture

Caption: Footdee is an area of Aberdeen, known to locals as "Fittie". An old fishing village at the east end of the harbour.

Picture

Caption: The two squares of 'Fish Town' (known as Footdee), originally contained 28 single-storey thatched houses although this increased when the later Middle Row (circa 1837) and Pilot Square (circa 1855) were added. The entrances on each of the North and South squares were filled in the 1870s by William Smith (son of John and architect of Balmoral Castle).

Picture

Caption: Tarry sheds Throughout the 19th century, 'tarry sheds' were added to the communal land within the squares opposite each dwelling and now every dwelling has its own shed.
