Tour Scotland Video Old Scone Road Perthshire December 3rd

Tour Scotland video of the road up the hill from Old Scone to New Scone, Perthshire, Scotland. Shot this video at 1pm, Friday, December 3rd. The medieval village of Scone, which grew up around the monastery and royal residence, was abandoned in the early 19th century when the residents were removed and a new palace was built on the site by the Earl of Mansfield. Thus, there are two Scones, the modern village of Scone, and Scone Palace on the site of the medieval village of Old Scone
