Hi Mrs L,
That's the one. If it was like that in the 60/70's you can imagine what it would have been like in the late 1600's. No wonder some of the family moved to the Gorbels in Glasgow :-)

Interesting.  I always thought I'd like to live there, actually, and woudl jump at the chance these days too Smiley When we moved to KPD in 1968 (from London), there were still houses in the village with no telephone, plumbed in toilet, etc.
Piper's Croft is in a lovely location; happy to photograph it (with owner's permission, or from a distance ) when I get back up there if you like.
