Tour Scotland short Spring 4K travel video clip of Daffodils by Balhousie Castle on ancestry, genealogy, history visit and trip to Perth, Perthshire, Britain, United Kingdom. This Scottish castle is the Regimental Headquarters and Museum of The Black Watch. The castle, located on Hay Street, originally a few hundred metres north of the medieval town, dates to 1631, though its origins are believed to go back a further three hundred years. It originally served as the seat of the Earls of Kinnoull, and stood within a walled enclosure on a terrace overlooking the North Inch Park. After falling into neglect in the early 19th century, the Castle was rebuilt, and extensively remodelled on a larger scale in 1862 in the Baronial style by the architect David Smart. In 1962, the Castle became the Regimental Headquarters and Museum of The Black Watch. The Piper statue ccommemorate those Regular Army and Territorials who served in the Great War. The 51st Highland Division was an infantry division of the British Army that fought on the Western Front in France during the World War I from 1915 to 1918. The division was raised in 1908, upon the creation of the Territorial Force, as the Highland Division and later 51st Highland Division from 1915. Spring in the United Kingdom depends on whether you are following the astronomical or metrological calendar. The date for astronomical spring is Sunday 20th March 2022, 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. @tourscotland #scotland #bagpipes #music #shortsvideo #castle
