Bear On The Hill With Bagpipes Music On History Visit To Newburgh Fife Scotland

Tour Scotland short 4K Autumn travel video clip of the Bear sculpture above the new whisky distillery by Lindores Abbey on ancestry, genealogy, family history visit and trip to Newburgh, Fife, Britain, United Kingdom. The bear on the hill was cut for a local festival and community project. I, Sandy Stevenson, was the organiser of that project, having been the community worker in Newburgh after the Linoleum Factory closed down. The outline was ploughed by Wendell Wilkie a worker from Parkhill Farm, and permission for the outline was given by Mr. Tom Howieson from Parkhill Farm. The bear is a depiction of a stone called the bear stone, from which the Bear Tavern takes its name, and was originally set into the abbot’s residence at Lindores Abbey. 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.
