Tour Scotland short 4K Winter travel video clip of a Scotsman wearing a kilt and sporran and walking in the rain in Finnich Glen on ancestry, genealogy, history visit and trip to Stirlingshire, Britain, United Kingdom. Historically, the glen was known as Ashdow or Ashdhu, derived from the Gaelic uisge dubh, meaning " black water ". Around 1860, a steep stone staircase was built to allow access to the gorge floor; these steps are now crumbling and considered dangerous to navigate. Some stories suggest ancient Druids used the secluded gorge for secret meetings and mystical ceremonies. Other tales claim witches used the pgorge as a place to cast spells away from prying eyes. 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
