Town of Peterhead
South Harbour - [continued from previous page] [History of Buchan by Rev. [Reverend J. Pratt, Cruden p.65] felt for the repair of these harbours that in February 1740, an Assembly was held in Edinburgh in aid of the other collections for this purpose. IN 1771 the piers of the South Harbour had again fallen into disrepair, and contributions from various sources were obtained in aid of their restoration. Plans were furnished by Smeaton, and the building according to these plans was commenced in 1773. In 1807, the late Mr Rennie furnished a plan and estimate for extending the South harbour and for building a new North harbour. Fifty thousand cubic yards of rock were excavated from the bottom of the South harbour, and an addition of about 200 feet made to the West Pier; but nothing was done at this time to the North harbour.

Ordnance Survey was established in the 18th century to create maps, surveys and associated records for the entirety of Great Britain. These records are arranged by county. This entry has been created to enable searching for Ordnance Survey records for the county of Aberdeen, which is in the north east of Scotland. The boundaries of the county were altered by the Boundary Commissioners in 1891.
