The history of Aberdeen Harbour in 30 archive photos

The Tall Ships success has shone the spotlight on the history of Aberdeen Harbour, which has been at the heart of the city for nearly 900 years. For many visitors, the Tall Ships has been a rare opportunity to spend time in Aberdeen's historic dockland, a hub of commerce for centuries. Aberdeen Harbour, now known as the Port of Aberdeen, holds the incredible record for being the oldest existing business in Britain having been founded in 1136. As early as the 13th Century, Aberdeen's trade was wholly sea-borne, making it the commercial capital of the north of Scotland. The historic harbour also played a crucial role in the building of King's College in Old Aberdeen. Bishop Elphinstone himself sent wool, salmon, barrels of trout and money to the continent from the harbour in exchange for carts, wheelbarrows and gunpowder needed to quarry the stone for the college. By the 16th Century, Aberdeen's merchants were trading with the Baltic regions of Prussia and Pomerania, and Poland. As the 17th Century approached, the harbour's one quay was inadequate to meet this demand. King James the VI intervened and issued a charter to repair the pier, shore and create a bulwark at Torry to deepen the entrance to the harbour. In just over 200 years, until the last shipyard closed in 1992, 3,000 ships were built in Aberdeen. Many of these were built under the Aberdeen Line, including the famous clipper Thermopylae. As technology advanced, so did the harbour, with additions like lighthouses, new docks and steam power. The rapid growth of the fishing industry in the 19th Century made Aberdeen Harbour the chief centre of the Scottish fish trade. In 1921, historian Victorian Elizabeth Clark published 'The Port of Aberdeen', a comprehensive book looking at the city's maritime heritage. She said: 'If the history of the port in the twentieth century reveals as great a measure of progress as that which marked the nineteenth, if it produces changes and improvements in the commercial life of the city as beneficial as those of last century, the continued prosperity of Aberdeen as a seaport will be assured.' While days of shipbuilding, coal deliveries and the quayside railway may be long gone, Clark could never have foreseen the discovery of oil. Oil brought some of the greatest changes to Aberdeen Harbour through extensive modernisation which saw the port rebuilt. Now the Port of Aberdeen is as busy as ever. In 2023, it became Britain's oldest-existing business with the country's newest harbour – Aberdeen South Harbour.

Award winning Ballater Bed and Breakfast and former historic church goes up for sale

An award-winning Ballater bed and breakfast and a restored historic church is up for sale for £750,000. The Auld Kirk was named as Scotland's Best B&B 2025 by the Prestige Hotel Awards. Originally an early Victorian Scottish Free Church building, the property was restored in the 80s. Current owners Kevin and Helen Smith have developed the business over seven years into a highly profitable and acclaimed venue. It features seven en-suite bedrooms, a guest-only bar, a lounge, breakfast room, plus private owners' accommodation. The Auld Kirk benefits from nearby access to Balmoral Castle, local amenities, golf courses, and scenic outdoor pursuits. Located on Braemar Road, the business enjoys an occupancy rate of over 90% during peak season. The owners spoke to the Press and Journal after being named the best B&B in Scotland by AA in 2024. Kevin said: 'We both worked in financial services our whole life and it wasn't until 2019 when we bought this place and took over 'We moved up here from England and decided we wanted to do something different. This place stood out to us.' AA Inspectors at the time said: 'This Victorian Scottish Free Church building has been carefully converted into a warm guest house and is now hosted by welcoming proprietors Helen & Kevin. 'Many original features of the Kirk have been restored and incorporated into the design.' David Pickering, Commercial Director at CCL Property, said: 'The Auld Kirk is a truly remarkable property combining rich history, superb quality, and a proven business model in a prime Scottish tourist destination.' 'We're excited to help find the next owner.' Offering not only the B&B business, there is also significant potential through previous consents for attic conversion to create additional apartments, subject to planning. Potential buyers can contact CCL Property to discuss further details and arrange viewings.

Vibrant Scottish town with some of UK's cheapest houses is packed with 'charming' streets

This town in East Ayrshire, Scotland, has been named one of the most affordable places to live in the UK, with locals praising its vibrant shopping scene and friendly atmosphere An historic town in East Ayrshire has been crowned one of the UK's most affordable places to live, with locals praising its bustling shopping scene and welcoming atmosphere. Property website Rightmove has ranked Kilmarnock as Scotland's top spot for first-time buyers, offering average house prices significantly below the national average. ‌ Rightmove reports that homes in Kilmarnock have sold for an average of £154,688 over the past year. Flats have been snapped up for an average of £75,868, while semi-detached properties have commanded £161,391 and terraced houses £115,793. ‌ Prices have risen by seven per cent compared to 2024 and are four per cent higher than the 2022 peak. This news comes after images show the cheapest seaside spot in England is full of abandoned £40k homes 'nobody wants'. ‌ Home to over 47,000 people, Kilmarnock's housing costs are more than five times lower than London, where the average flat will set you back a whopping £590,543. The town's blend of cultural heritage, green spaces and retail options has made it a popular choice for homebuyers. Kilmarnock is home to a wealth of cultural landmarks, including Scotland's largest Burns Monument, the Dick Institute and the Palace Theatre. The town centre boasts a range of independent shops as well as popular high street brands, reports the Daily Record. The tourism board Visit Scotland has described Bank Street as: "a charming cobbled street in the historic core, with the elegant John Finnie Street boasting one of the best examples of provincial Victorian architecture in Scotland." The board also spotlighted Dean Castle and Country Park as "a fantastic day out for all the family" and commended the Burns Monument Centre's picturesque location in Kay Park. ‌ For many locals, the town's charm and easy access are its main attractions. Andrew Reith, 41, who runs Zenith Coins and has been working in Kilmarnock for five years, said: "The town has some nice parks, and there are a few spots for public entertainment. The shopping area is quite popular, and both tourists and locals enjoy wandering around it. "What I feel is that the town could benefit from a couple of large organisations, such as factories, to create more job opportunities for people living in the area." However, not everyone shares this positive view. One local told The Express: "Many people in Kilmarnock rely on Government benefits and lack ambition and zeal to work. ‌ "Most people are looking to send their children to the schools in Troon which is around 15 to 20 minutes away from Kilmarnock and is home to some of the most affluent people in the town." While some streets offer homes priced between £75,000 and £84,000, others feature properties worth £500,000. Tracey Oakley, a property adviser with Donald Ross Residential, noted: "Kilmarnock is a huge area and it would not be right to say that the houses are cheap [everywhere] here. The town is not very far from Glasgow and has a lovely shopping centre. "The properties which are put on the market are being sold in just two to six weeks, showing its popularity among the buyers." East Ayrshire Council says the town's energy is being enhanced by regeneration initiatives. David McDowall, head of economic growth, said: "We are happy to see Kilmarnock is featuring as one of the more economical places to live. "Over the past 15 years, our Regeneration and Business Support teams have attracted investment to enable the redevelopment of the town new life into the town's conservation area." He added that Kilmarnock has "weathered the storm of closures of the mass industries such as whisky bottling, shoe making, carpet making, textiles and heavy engineering" and is now "experiencing a resurgence" with new small and medium enterprises.
