Tour Scotland Travel Video Winter Road Trip Drive To Kirriemuir Angus

Tour Scotland travel video Blog of a sunny road trip drive, with Scottish music, North on the A928 road, to Kirriemuir on ancestry visit to Angus, Scotland. The history of Kirriemuir reaches back to earliest recorded times, when it seems to have been a major ecclesiastical centre. Later it was identified with witchcraft, and some older houses still feature a ‘witches stane’ to ward off evil. In the 19th century, it was an important centre of the jute trade. The playwright J.M. Barrie was born and buried here. After skirting the grounds of Glamis Castle, of Macbeth and Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother fame, the A928 road crosses a dismantled railway line and continues to Kirriemuir, where it runs into the town centre.
