The Fateful Storm
The tiny village of Crovie is located on the North East coast of Scotland, and consists of a single row of houses. The village occupies such a narrow space that cars have to be left on it’s perimeter. Not surprisingly Crovie was once a fishing village, however fishing is now in decline in the locality, and most of the fishermen’s cottages have been turned into holiday lets. In 1953 a particularly fierce storm hit the village, and almost washed it into the sea. Many villagers left after the fateful storm, however some remained and rebuilt this charming little village.
