Fraserburgh, 43-45 Castle Street

Herring Curing Station (19th Century)(possible), Terraced House (19th Century)

What is recorded here

43-45 Castle Street in Fraserburgh, Aberdeenshire, may have operated as a herring curing station before becoming a terraced house. Both functions belong to the 19th century, when the harbour town turned seawater, salt and human labour into food, income and memory. The exact boundary between kitchen, workshop and home has blurred, but that uncertainty fits a place where daily life and local trade relied on the same rooms.
Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Fraserburgh, 43-45 Castle Street as Herring Curing Station (19th Century)(possible), Terraced House (19th Century).
