Tour Scotland short 4K early Spring travel video clip of the sight and sounds of the River Braan in spate on ancestry, genealogy, family history visit and trip by the Hermitage near Dunkeld in Highland Perthshire, Britain, United Kingdom. A spate river is a largely rain fed, fast-flowing river. These types of rivers are both fast rising and fast falling. The River Braan, Scottish Gaelic: Breamhainn, is a tributary of the River Tay in Scotland. Within the county of Perth and Kinross, it flows 11 miles eastwards from Loch Freuchie, near Amulree, and joins the River Tay near Dunkeld. The name Braan is likely of Pritenic origin and derived from breμ, meaning bellow, bray or roar, from the Welsh brefu. A similar etymological root underlies the names of the rivers Breamish in Northumberland, England and the Brefi in Ceredigion, Wales. The date for astronomical spring is Sunday 20th March, ending on Tuesday 21st June, while by the meteorological calendar, spring will start on Tuesday 1st March.
