Informations supplémentaires

Gyles house in the scottish village of Pittenween was built, as the blue plaque says, was built for a Capt. James Cook, NOT the English Capt. Cook whose voyages of exploration are legendary. His claim to fame is that he carried the Scottish King Charles 2 to exile after his defeat at the battle of Worcester. In latter years, after the Restoration, his family was rewarded with a grant of land in Pittenweem. he carried the king in a coal ship. However the Blue Plaque on the side of the house said that the story was part of a 19th century hoax. Gyles House is one of a group of impressive sea captains houses in the village.
