Historic Fraseburgh buildings to throw open their doors

The Dalrymple Hall, Fraserburgh
The Dalrymple Hall, Fraserburgh

Visitors can explore some of Fraserburgh’s lesser-known sites this weekend as part of Doors Open Day.

Organised by the Scottish Civic Trust, the event will give people the rare opportunity to discover more about some of the town’s landmarks, including Dalrymple Hall and the B-listed World’s End.

The idea behind the initiative is to boost local tourism and open people’s eyes to the historical sites around them.

Aberdeenshire Council environment planner Cheryl Roberts is helping coordinate this year’s event.

She said: “Doors Open Day gives local residents and visitors to the area a chance to discover architecture, design, places and spaces not normally accessible to the public.

“Each building presents something completely different and I would encourage everyone to take advantage of this opportunity to explore the area’s local heritage.”

The buildings, which are spread across the fishing port and surrounding area, include the lighthouse’s Wine Tower and Castle Kitchen, the RNLI Station, Pitsligo’s Peathill Kirk and Durn House in Portsoy.

The Salmon Bothy in Portsoy is also hosting an exhibition depicting life in the coastal village during the World War I.

The majority of the 21 sites will be open from 10am-4pm on Saturday. Brochures with full details of the participating venues are available at local libraries, information centres and visitor attractions.
