Alford Heritage Centre

The Alford Heritage Centre is housed in the last of the original? Marts (or Auction) buildings to survive in the North East of Scotland. Marts used to exist in and around all centres of agricultural activity throughout the North East and served as the focus of many rural communities. The Alford Heritage Centre is now a visitor centre and museum ? comprising a collection of domestic, agricultural and rural exhibits of regional importance.

The Alford Heritage Centre serves as a museum for visitors and it is the focus of many local activities; concerts, educational visits and exhibitions. We have a small library and an extensive collection of historic photographs ? as well as an eclectic mix of local and regional records and documents.
