Details A World War I prisoner of war camp is recorded at Boddam in the 1919 'List of Places of Internment' in Britain, its colonies and dominions, although the precise location is unknown. It was a work camp, and it is likely that the men were employed in either the Stirling Quarry or in the construction of the massive breakwaters of the Peterhead harbour of refuge to which much of the quarry's output went and to which it was linked by a railway.
