EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph, the picturesque village of Archiestown in Knockando, Moray, Scotland, is captured in the early 1900s. Nestled amidst the rolling hills and lush greenery, Archiestown exudes a sense of tranquility and timeless beauty. The village was named in honor of its founder, Sir Archibald Grant of Monymusk, who established the settlement around 1765. Sir Archibald, a Scottish laird and politician, played a significant role in the development of the village, which was initially designed as a planned community. The streets are laid out in a grid pattern, and the houses are arranged symmetrically, reflecting the orderly planning of the time. The village's name, Archiestown, is derived from Archibald, the founder's name, and town, indicating its status as a settlement with a market or a royal burgh. The photograph shows the village's main street, lined with traditional Scottish houses, many of which still stand today. The houses are built of local stone and have thatched roofs, adding to their charm and character. The village's church, St. Andrew's Parish Church, can be seen in the background, its steeple reaching towards the sky. The photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a simpler time when life moved at a slower pace. The village of Archiestown remains a popular tourist destination, attracting visitors from around the world who are drawn to its rich history and picturesque beauty. This photograph serves as a reminder of the village's past and its enduring charm.
