Snow on the Line in Fraserburgh


Looking along the Line towards the CPT Factory, the spire of Fraserburgh West Parish Church is prominent and the 'Toolies' factory looks less grim than usual under a fresh covering of snow.

A handsome Gothic building, completed in 1876, in response to the needs of  a growing community, and as an extension of the Old Parish Church in the Broadgate, the West Parish Church was described as being situated, 'among the green fields high on  a slope on the edge of the town'. It is now situated in the middle of  a traffic island, the Hexagon, which owing to the continued expansion of the burgh is now considered to be a town centre location.
