Tour Scotland short 4K Spring travel video clip of cherry blossom trees on ancestry visit to the cemetery in Kilrenny in the East Neuk of Fife, Britain, United Kingdom. The first element of the name Kilrenny is from the Scottish Gaelic cill, meaning, church. The renny element may perpetuate a worn down form of Etharnan or Itharnan, an early churchman who died among the Picts in 669. The village was formerly Upper Kilrenny, until nearby Lower Kilrenny changed its name to Cellardyke in the 16th century. For just a few weeks of the year, Scotland is peppered with stunning pockets of pink as cherry tree blossom comes into full bloom. Spring in the northern hemisphere technically starts on the 20 March, at the equinox, and lasts until the 20 or 21 June, the Summer solstice. This is also the case in Scotland.The months that make up the Spring season are March, April and May. However, for travelling at this time of year, I will be referring to April and May. 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
