  • J M Barrie's Birthplace, 9 Brechin Road, Kirriemuir, Angus DD8 4BX Telephone : 0844 493 2142 • When Booking, Please Check Arrangements for Your Coach Or Minibus
    J M Barrie’s Birthplace Teacher’s information J M Barrie, writer and creator of Peter Pan, was born at 9 Brechin Road, Kirriemuir in 1860. He lived there until he was 10 years old. Barrie eventually settled in London where he became a successful playwright. The most famous of his works has always been his children’s story of the magical Peter Pan. The upper floors of the House are furnished as they may have been when Barrie lived there (he was one of 10 children), in mid-Victorian times. Downstairs, is some Barrie memorabilia while, in the adjacent house, there is an exhibition of Barrie’s life and work. Displays include original manuscripts, a selection of Peter Pan costumes - and don’t miss ‘the most uncomfortable seat in the whole of (London) city’! The outside wash-house, said by Barrie to be his first theatre, may also be the original ‘Wendy House’. Barrie invented the name of Wendy for his story of Peter Pan. In 1930, Barrie presented a cricket pavilion and Camera Obscura to the town. The Camera Obscura is one of only 3 in the country and provides a fascinating experience for visitors. (On a clear day it is possible to see over 70 miles away.) It is situated on Kirrie Hill where there is also a picnic area and children’s play park. Schools visiting Barrie’s Birthplace can also book a visit to the Camera Obscura. This works well since both places can be seen easier in smaller groups (15–20 pupils). A class can be split in two – with one group at the House and one at the Camera Obscura, and then they swap round.

  • Vernacular Building 1-3 (1975-7)
    1 VERNACULAR BUILDING 1 ED nOR GEOFFREY STELL 1975 (REPRINT OMITTING BUSINESS NOTICES 1981) 2 Alexander Fenton and Gavin Sprott THE VERNACULAR BUILDINGS SECTIONS OF THE SCOTTISH COUNTRY LIFE ARCHIVE, NATIONAL MUSEUM OF ANTIQUITIES OF SCOTLAND. The Scottish Country Life Section of the National Museum of Antiquities of Scotland has been compiling, in the course of the last IS years, an Archive of information relating to all aspects of country life in Scotland. The Archive consists of 10 x 5 inch sheets and is arranged by subjects, each subject being broken down topographically by counties. At the time of writing there are approximately 50,000 entries, with an annual growth rate of 5000 - 6000 entries. About 10% of the whole Archive deals with vernacular buildings - i.e. over 5000 entries filling 33 files. This section of the Archive, like the Archive as a whole, has been built up in order to provide data on the background history and range of regional variations in Scottish vernacular buildings in the countryside and villages. It is as much concerned with social and economic history as with architectural history, and in fact its primary aim is to contextualise the buildings, to place them in their functional setting within their environment, and to see to what extent they are themselves products of their context. Material from all kinds of sources is included. The County Agricultural Surveys of the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries have been searched through and extracted, and the same applied to the Statistical Accounts of the l790s and the l840s, and to the publications of local societies.
