Summary

he fertile River Eden valley, which forms the basin shaped ‘Old Howe’, is rich in history as this collection of evocative images well demonstrates. Visited over the centuries by monarchs and other folk of consequence who left their mark in the great architecture dotting the landscape, nevertheless its story is largely one of ordinary folk and their endeavours. Pictured in the collection are the communities of Gateside, Strathmiglo, Auchtermuchty, the Rossie Estate, Kinloch, Lathrisk, Dunshelt, Falkland, Freuchie, Kettle, Balmalcolm, Cults, Ladybank, Giffordtown, Annsmuir, Ramornie, Pitlessie, Crawford Priory, Springfield, Letham, Monimail and Collessie. As always, Guthrie’s fact rich historical narrative enhances this visit to a bygone era.
