On Sunday I
left Aberlour and Spey. Train back
to Aberdeen
and there Tom was waiting for me. We drove
home to Tom and
Jean. The house they
live in is called Fishers Cottage. Great name for
a lovely place. 30 meters from river South
Esk. A small river, but with large salmon.
The Queen Mother was there a lot in the old days. She had arranged the building of the extension on
the house. Thats the yellow and
green part of the house. The extension was then
later used for cleaning and packing salmon. Trailers
came and took salmon from here and they
were then taken to London for export and sale. It was incredible
amounts of salmon transported from here. The firm
was named J. Johnston
& Sons and it was
one of the biggest salmon exporters in Europe .
In Fishers Cottage we stayed one night. So here are some pictures from that place.
