Alexander Walker Pilgrimage

Alexander Walker Pilgrimage

By Glenbuchat Hall on 21/06/2022

In May 2022, Laurie Walker from Connecticut, USA, made a visit to Strathdon and went to see places connected to her great grandfather Alexander Walker, the polymath who lived at Newe, Strathdon. 

He was a gardener, inventor, composer and more. He even exhibited two of his instruments at the Great Exhibition in 1951.

Find more photos and Peter Duffus’ account of the visit on the Glenbuchat Heritage website.
