championship golf course in cruden bay
“The Great North of Scotland Company’s new Railway to Port Erroll is to open to traffic early in the summer of 1897, and it will afford tourists an opportunity of visiting the beautiful Bay of Cruden, the famous Bullers of Buchan, and other favourite sea-side resorts. The new Golf Course at Port Erroll will in a few months be ready for playing; and the Company’s new hotel is to be ready for the reception of visitors in 1898.”
