Dunbar History Booklet No. 4 - Three Harbours, Fishing and Sea Trade

Sale Price: £2.00 Original Price: £4.00

This fourth booklet in the series explores the story of Dunbar’s three harbours — the early harbour at Belhaven, the Old or Cromwell Harbour, and the later Victoria (New) Harbour.

It also traces the rise and decline of the herring industry, the short-lived whaling trade, and the wider sea-going commerce of the sixteenth to nineteenth centuries. Dedicated to the memory and industry of past generations of Dunbar’s fishermen, this booklet also acknowledges the contribution of those at work today and in the future.
