Stonehaven Tolbooth MuseumFoto: Kelly McAlpine, Dalriada Luxury Lodges
The Stonehaven Tolbooth Museum is a historic and cultural landmark situated on the Old Pier at Stonehaven Harbour in Aberdeenshire, Scotland. Housed in the town's oldest surviving building, dating back to the late 16th century, the Tolbooth has served various roles over the centuries, including as a storehouse, courthouse, and prison.
The Tolbooth Museum offers insights into Stonehaven's rich heritage. Exhibits include:
- An original 18th-century cell door.
- The Inverbervie stocks, one of the few seven-hole stocks remaining in the UK.
- The "Crank," a punishment device that prisoners were forced to turn; tightening the screw increased the difficulty, a practice that led to prison guards being nicknamed "screws".
- Artefacts related to Stonehaven's maritime history, domestic life, and local industries.
