Tour Scotland 4K Winter travel video of a sunny but cold drive, with Scottish fiddle bagpipes music, on a mostly single track road on ancestry, genealogy, family history visit to Gauldry, North Fife, Britain, United Kingdom. Gauldry, locally known as The Gauldry, is a village located 2 miles south west of Newport on Tay, 1 mile south east of Balmerino, and half a mile south of Bottomcraig. The name derives from the Scots " gallow raw ", the row of houses leading towards the gallows on Gallowhill to the east. Once occupied by farmers, weavers and estate workers, Gauldry is now largely populated by commuters to Dundee and Cupar. Gauldry has a village hall built in 1896 and a park named Duncan Park dedicated to a great granddaughter of Admiral Viscount Duncan of Camperdown. Part of the road is only wide enough for one vehicle. It has special passing places. If you see a vehicle coming towards you, or the driver behind wants to overtake, try to pull into a passing place on your left, or wait opposite a passing place on your right. Give way to vehicles coming uphill whenever you can. If necessary, reverse until you reach a passing place to let the other vehicle pass. By the meteorological calendar, the first day of Winter is always 1st December in Scotland; ending on 28th of February. Of interest to folks with ancestry, genealogy or Scottish Family Roots in Scotland who may wish to visit one day. Find things to see and do in Scotland where you are always welcome. When driving on Scottish roads in Scotland slow down and enjoy the trip.
