Tour Scotland short 4K Winter travel video clip of the sight of sunset and sound the waves by the coastal walking path on ancestry, genealogy, family history visit and trip to the coast of Cellardyke by the Firth of Forth, East Neuk of Fife, Britain, United Kingdom. I was raised in this old fishing village on the East coast and attended Cellardyke Primary School and Waid Academy in Anstruther. Cellardyke was formerly known as Nether Kilrenny, Scots for Lower Kilrenny, or Sillerdyke, and Skinfast Haven, a name which can still be found on maps today. The modern name of the town is thought to have evolved from Sillerdykes, a reference to the sun glinting off fish scales encrusted on fishing nets left to dry in the sun on the dykes, or walls, around the harbour. The village is now a tourist destination situated on the Fife Coastal Walking Path which passes through Cellardyke, it is a Scottish long distance walking footpath that runs from Kincardine to Newburgh. It runs for 117 miles along the coastline of Fife and passes through many seaside towns and villages including Anstruther, Cellardyke, Crail, Elie, Lower Largo, Pittenweem and St Monans. The path would take around one week to walk completely from end to end. 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
