Skateraw Hall

Skateraw Hall The attractive, cosy hall has all the facilities you would need for up to 114 people.

Dating back to the late 1800s, the Skateraw Hall is available to villagers to rent for meetings, village groups, fund-raising events, social functions and more. In Skateraw (now Newtonhill) in the 1880s, there were 60 fishermen going out to sea in little boats, and over 150 employed in other fish-related activity. The fish houses were along the top of the cliffs, and the wives had to carry their h

eavy creels up the steep path, and once a week walk the 12 miles to The Green in Aberdeen to sell their smokies. Back in 1890, the Laird provided a meeting place and reading rooms for the fisherfolk of Skateraw. This was the "Skateraw Hall"; pine-lined as homes and bothies were in those days, and run by a management committee of villagers as is still the case today.
