Tour Scotland short 4K early Spring travel video clip, of some snow falling by the Telford Bridge over the River Tay on ancestry, genealogy, family history visit and trip to Dunkeld, Highland Perthshire, Britain, United Kingdom. This Scottish Bridge built by Thomas Telford is considered to be one of the greatest civil engineering feats of the 19th century. Thomas Telford, born 1757, died 1834, was a Scottish civil engineer, architect and stonemason, and a noted road, bridge and canal builder. The River Tay, Scottish Gaelic: Tatha, is the longest river in Scotland and the seventh longest in the United Kingdom. The Tay originates in western Scotland on the slopes of Ben Lui mountain, Scottish Gaelic: Beinn Laoigh, then flows easterly across the Highlands, through Loch Dochart, Loch Iubhair and Loch Tay, then continues east through Strathtay, in the centre of Scotland, then south east through Perth, where it becomes tidal, to its mouth at the Firth of Tay, south of Dundee in Tayside. 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. 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
