I was born in Aberdeen and we lived on Walker Road in Torry for a couple of years, before moving South. My father was brought up in Torry. I remember as a child my father taking my sister and me on walks up the Gramps behind Torry, long since built on with modern commercial buildings. I never realised there was so much history in Torry.

Very interesting. I know people living in the properties in Abbey Road, Fisher Square. They will be delighted to see footage of how their house used to be.

I worked at lowes bakery and bade there for a few months. My grandfither worked the trawler boats likely launched via the harbour. Tory's always felt different fae the rest of Aiberdeen like a completely independent toon. Such a fascinating area. Rare doc by the way!
