EDITORS COMMENTS
A Banffshire Crofter - A Glimpse into the Past of Rural Scotland This evocative photograph captures the image of an elderly Banffshire crofter, a resident of the Scottish Highlands who made their living from small-scale farming and fishing. The crofter, dressed in traditional attire, is seen working diligently at his cottage, using a hand cranked quern stone to grind his daily supply of grain. His weathered face, creased with the lines of age and the elements, speaks of a life lived close to the land and the passing of time. The scene is set against the backdrop of a quaint, stone-built cottage, its thatched roof and ivy-covered walls a testament to the enduring character of rural Scotland. The surrounding landscape, dotted with trees and rolling hills, adds to the sense of tranquility and isolation that was once a part of the daily existence of the crofters. The use of a simple wooden wheel and a long, wooden stick to operate the quern stone is a reminder of the ingenuity and resourcefulness of the people who lived in these remote areas. The crofter's determination to grind his own grain, despite his advanced age, is a symbol of the resilience and self-sufficiency that were essential qualities for survival in the harsh Scottish climate. This photograph, taken in the early 20th century, offers a glimpse into the history and traditions of Banffshire and the Scottish Highlands. It is a poignant reminder of a way of life that has largely disappeared, and a reminder of the importance of preserving the stories and memories of our past.
