The impact of the Great War on families living in the north-east has been highlighted at a special centenary event.
The Fraserburgh Heritage Centre hosted a theme day to remember the town’s role in World War I.
An exhibition of artifacts, equipment and uniforms from the era, courtesy of the Great War Boys’ mobile museum, went on show at the award-winning Kinnaird Head attraction.
Visitors took part in a community sing-a-long, revisiting some old wartime favourites.
A spokeswoman for the museum said that a steady stream of people flocked to the event on Saturday, which also included a live transmission from its Guglielmo Marconi radio shack.
Earlier this year, the town’s heritage society appealed to locals to come forward with hitherto unseen artifacts which could shine a spotlight on what it was like to live in Fraserburgh during the war.
The letters, photographs and memorabilia donated to the museum was used to form a new WWI exhibit, which was unveiled during the centre’s reopening in April.
In one letter on display, soldier “Jim” tells his mother in Fraserburgh that he is “still a little weak” after losing his left arm.
He writes: “It’s the only wound, but I think its plenty.”
The Fraserburgh museum was opened in a converted barrel-making factory in 1998 following a 15-year campaign by local history buffs.
A year after opening, it was named Scottish museum of the year.
The Quarry Road centre is home to hundreds of exhibits charting the rise of the port and some of its most famous residents, including industrialist Thomas Blake Glover, fashion designer Bill Gibb and African explorer John Ross.
Last year, volunteers battled to save the museum after vital Aberdeenshire Council funding was slashed by 40%.
Fraserburgh Heritage Society, which runs the community-built attraction, had its annual grant cut from £21,000 to £12,600.
