Tour Scotland 4K Autumn travel video, with Scottish music, on ancestry, genealogy, family history visit the church and cemetery in Kinclaven, Perthshire, Britain, United Kingdom. The parish church was rebuilt in 1848. The graveyard contains the war memorial lychgate of 1919 by Reginald Fairlie, and some table tombs of the 17th century and later. Built into the churchyard wall is the monument to Alexander Campbell Bishop of Brechin 1608. There was an ancient castle in old Kinclaven which is said to have been built by Malcolm Canmore, and to have been for many centuries an occasional residence of the kings of Scotland, from which several of their charters are dated. During the wars that arose, from the contested succession to the throne, between Bruce and Baliol, the castle was occupied by an English garrison, which, being at an unguarded moment surprised by Sir William Wallace, was taken and dismantled so far as to render it no longer tenable as a place of strength. Autumn leaf color or colour is a phenomenon that affects the normally green leaves of many deciduous trees and shrubs by which they take on, during a few weeks in the autumn season, various shades of red, yellow, purple, black, orange, pink, magenta, blue and brown. The phenomenon is commonly called autumn colours or autumn foliage in British English and fall colors, fall foliage or simply foliage in American English. Of interest to folks with ancestry, genealogy or Scottish Family Roots in Scotland who may wish to visit one day
