G and H Gordon

G and H Gordon operate the Castles Beach Shop kiosk at St Andrews, positioned beside the castle ruins that overlook the North Sea on the town's rocky foreshore. The Gordon family name is associated with beachside trading in St Andrews, offering ice cream, snacks, and refreshments to visitors exploring the castle and cathedral ruins that define this historic town. St Andrews Castle, built in the twelfth century, was the residence of the bishops of St Andrews and the site of cardinal Beaton's murder in 1546; it now draws thousands of visitors past the kiosk each year. A classic Scottish seaside concession at one of Scotland's most historically charged coastal spots.
