NO 56879 03483 An historic building survey was undertaken of the whale store, which forms part of the Scottish Fisheries Museum. A photogrammetric survey was also made of a carved stone bearing the image of a ship. The ship is thought to be a mid-18th century whaler of the type serviced by the whale store at Anstruther Easter during the 1750s, by the Anstruther Whale Fishing Company for the early Arctic Whale Fishery.

This work was undertaken 20 June 2013 – 29 April 2014.
