Brief History of Fittie Aberdeen
Fittie Aberdeen was first recorded around 1398 named as a corruption of St Fittick parish that stands to the east of Aberdeen Harbour on an isolated spit of land. The buildings date from 1809 as a redevelopment of the old village.
Two squares were built forming Fish-town that contained 28 thatched single-storey houses with a further two squares added soon after including two-storey buildings creating flatted properties.
Each house eventually acquired its own “tarry shed” built from found driftwood to hold the fishers’ nets and tackle and eventually became part of each house. Two of these sheds form the subject of this watercolour that is the character of Fittie village.
Fittie was granted Conservation Area Status as an entity to keep the character as the whole area.

Excellent pictures. All of them actually, but this is one of my favourites.
Detail very accurate, colours apt.
These paintings should be on display often at different venues e.g. craft fairs.
