Auchmithie is a village perched on a cliff a few miles north of Arbroath. Some would say that it's the original home of the famed "Arbroath Smokie", and indeed for a long time it had a much bigger fishing fleet than its southern neighbour. But its harbour, at the foot of the cliffs was possibly less attractive than that available in Arbroath and during the 19th century, much of its fleet moved away.

The village is a quiet spot today with the harbour only home to a few small vessels

Of passing note is that fact that it figures in Scott's "The Antiquary", where it is called "Musselcrag".

There is a rather nice seafood restaurant in the village which is worth a visit.

Traducción:
Auchmittie es un pueblo colgado en un acantilado a unas pocas millas de Arbroath.Algunos dirían que es el lugar originario del afamado "Ahumado de Arbroath", y en efecto, durante mucho tiempo tuvo una flota pesquera mucho mayor que su vecino del sur.Pero su puerto, al pie de los acantilados era seguramente menos atractivo que el que había en Arbroath y durante el siglo XIX gran parte de su flota se trasladó a otros lugares.

El pueblo hoy en día es un lugar traquilo cuyo puerto sólo alberga unas pocas embarcaciones.
Otro aspecto que puede comentarse de paso es el hecho de que figura en la obra de Scott "El anticuario", donde se le llama "Musselcrag"

The light, the swing, so modern.

Remarkably short skirt for the era. Perhaps as a working (fisher?) woman she needed to keep her skirts dry.

Hi, I'm an admin for a group called Shots that don't leave you indifferent, and we'd love to have this added to the group!

There's a really intriguing reflection of the studio or location of where this was taken on the left side of her breastplate, It looks like a long hall or railway station.

A Celtic triune or triad is possibility perhaps, or the mythic or later empire idea of 'Britannia' holding a trident?

Added later : Even earlier than Boudicca a personification goddess like Eriu for Eire , Brigantia for Britain... a form of the Goddess Brigid .
Three rivers are named for Her - Brigit, Braint and Brent in Ireland, Wales and England, respectively. As with the Celtic river goddess of the Seine in Paris , Sequana
In modern Britain today She is shown as the warrior-maiden, Brigantia, and venerated not only as justice and authority in that country, but also as the personification of Britain as is seen on the coin of the realm. There is a story, coming from the 12th century, in which Merlin is inspired by a feminine figure who represents the sovereignty of the Land of Britain. She causes his visions to reach through British history, on, so it is said, to the end of the solar system. Taliesin also describes a traditional cosmology, inspired by Brigantia. She is central to many heroic myths, especially those concerned with underworld quests and sacred kingship. This seems to relate to Her concern for the development of human potential.

I love these old fancy dress pictures. wonder when this was taken? My Great Aunt had quite a few taken in the late 1910s at a local photographic studio.
