Dreich Autumn Road Trip Drive With Music To Visit Den Of Lindores North Fife Scotland

Tour Scotland Autumn travel video, with Scottish music, of a dreich, which is a Scots word for dull and cloudy, road trip drive East on the A913 road through Abernethy, Perthshire, and Newburgh on visit to Den of Lindores in North Fife. A hamlet in Abdie Parish, Den of Lindores is situated at the junction of the A913 and B936 roads 2 miles South East of Newburgh. Nearby is Denmylne Castle which was built in 1560. The lands of Denmylne early belonged to the Earls of Fife but fell to the Crown after the forfeiture of the last Earl. In 1451 King James II bestowed the lands on James Balfour and from him descended the Balfours of Denmylne who held the castle and lands around for over two hundred years, and were in their time a noble and illustrious family. When driving in Scotland, slow down and enjoy the trip. All photographs are copyright of Sandy Stevenson, Tour Scotland, and may not be used without permission.
