Wanderings with a Camera in Scotland - The Photography of Erskine Beveridge
Erskine Beveridge was mentioned in a magazine article I was reading about the Western Isles. Decided to look him up and stumbled over the following.
In the early 1960s, in the course of recording a Dunfermline mill building that was scheduled for demolition, RCAHMS surveyors discovered an incredible collection of over 750 glass plate negatives. Taken between 1880 and 1919, the photographs show Scotland on the brink of major social and economic change. From black houses in the Western Isles and Highland crofts in the shadow of Ben Nevis, to remote castles in Argyll and busy harbour views in Fife, they are a remarkable record of a bygone era.
