Coast And Castle On Boxing Day History Visit To St Andrews Fife Scotland

Tour Scotland short 4K Winter, Boxing Day, December 26th, travel video clip of the sight and sounds of the coast by the castle on ancestry, genealogy, family history visit and trip to St Andrews, Fife, Britain, United Kingdom. On a headland by the coast stand the ruins of the city's castle, which was the main residence of the bishops and archbishops of St Andrews. Protestant preacher George Wishart was imprisoned in the castle’s bottle dungeon. Cardinal Beaton’s murdered body was kept in the dank and airless dungeon. The assassination sparked the brutal siege of 1546, when opposing sides dug into the rock close to the castle battlements. The Fife Coastal Walking Path, which passes through St Andrews, is a Scottish long distance walking footpath that runs from Kincardine to Newburgh. It runs for 117 miles along the coastline of Fife. The path would take around one week to walk completely from end to end. 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. By the meteorological calendar, the first day of Winter is always 1st December in Scotland; ending on 28th of February. Officially, the Scottish winter runs from the 21st of December through to the 20th March. @tourscotland #winter #music #shorts #boxingday All photographs are copyright of Sandy Stevenson, Tour Scotland, and may not be used without permission.
