Tour Scotland short early Autumn 4K travel video clip of the sight and sounds of the coast on history visit and trip to Wormit by the South shore of the Firth of Tay in North East Fife, Britain, United Kingdom. The name of the village is thought to be derived from the plant wormwood. It is most famous for its location at the southern end of the Tay Railway Bridge, which has led to it becoming a commuter suburb of Dundee. During the Second World War, King Haakon VII of Norway stayed in Wormit, in a house along Riverside Road. Norwegian Catalina flying boats were stationed here. Wormit claims to have been the first village in Scotland to install electricity. The Firth of Tay, Scottish Gaelic: Linne Tatha, is an estuary in Scotland between the council areas of Fife, Perth and Kinross, the City of Dundee and Angus, into which Scotland's largest river in terms of flow, the River Tay empties. 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.
