Fisherfolk of Cromarty Comes Alive | Glasgow News
Description
Step into Cromarty’s past with a groundbreaking new digital walking tour—Fisherfolk of Cromarty. Using your smartphone, walk the same streets where early 20th-century fisherfolk lived and worked, as historical photos from photographer Willie John Smith magically overlay onto your view. This immersive AR experience highlights nine key spots, honoring both men and women who shaped this coastal community—women who baited hooks, wove baskets, and even carried husbands to boats. Powered by Smartify and backed by The National Lottery Heritage Fund, it’s part of a wider push to bring Highland museums to life through tech. Free, self-guided, and launching August 24, it’s history made tangible—right where it happened.
