Title
Torry
Description
Facing south-west, towards the church hall, this shot shows sailing fishing boats moored mid-stream in the Torry Harbour. A skiff approaches under partial sail in front of the leading light house. From the right of this lighthouse the edge of a building peeks out with the name "Miller". David Miller ran a popular spirits shop on the corner of Sinclair Road and Baxter Street. He appears in the Aberdeen Post Office Directories from 1904. The shop changes hands in 1906 to John P. Miller, a presumed family member. See image GN12_05 for more details regarding an approximate date of 1916.
