The Shell House

Anstruther, Fife

Just one small area of 'Buckie House' which in the 1840s was adorned from
top to bottom with sea shells by it's eccentric owner.
(It stands on a busy street corner so almost impossible to
photograph the entire building without being killed by the traffic!)
Seems the owner was so impressed by his handiwork that he later
built himself a coffin and decorated it in a similar manner!
