Social Activities
Welcome to this collection of photographs from Nigg Parish. The originals are held by Mrs Liz Whiteford. The photographs were presented in three albums on the original RCHS website, but as the topics are similar in each album it has been decided to amalgamate them under these topics.
We have included all the photograph albums in the Nigg and Shandwick Libraries page on this website. However, we have included the recreational activities album on this page. Please enjoy the photos.
