The beautiful waterfall cliffs beaches at muchalls Aberdeenshire’s north of Stonehaven
one of the most challenging waterfalls I’ve went to wouldn’t recommend trying to find it unless fit and used to climbing hope you enjoy watching the video as much as I loved filming it
Just drove over this little beauty thought I’d share it with you all beautifully designed bridge
Bridge of Dun
Crossing the South Esk River, the Bridge of Dun is a three-span bridge dating back to the 18th century. With beautiful detail added to its columns, A short walk from the nearby train station, the design has a distinctly Gothic flair and was granted a Category A Listing in the 1970s.
Earth houses Carlungie and Ardestie Earthhouses can be found in farmland north of Monifieth and Carnoustie. They date to the late Iron Age, from the 1st to 2nd centuries AD. They are examples of souterrains, probably used to store food

OLD KINNEFF CHURCH THE CROWN JEWELS
This was essentially the church in which the Reverend James Grainger found himself minister when, in late 1651, Cromwell's forces under the command of General George Monck besieged Dunnottar Castle, six miles up the coast. By the time Dunnottar fell on 26 May 1652, it was the last place left in Scotland holding out for Charles II.
Monck was especially keen to take Dunnottar because he knew it was where the Honours of Scotland, the Scottish Crown Jewels, had been taken for safekeeping, and their capture would be hugely symbolic. But when the castle fell, the Honours were nowhere to be found. Reverend Grainger's wife had smuggled them out of the besieged castle and the couple had buried them under the floor of Kinneff Old Church, only revealing their whereabouts after the Restoration of Charles II in 1660.
The church is open to the public and you can see replicas of the Crown Jewels inside as can be seen in the video

Interesting Inverbervie
A full scale carved timber replica of the figurehead from the renowned tea clipper "the Cutty Sark" carved from Linton's original drawings 3 metres tall. with a black granite plaque engraved with the image of the ship. The figurehead depicts the young witch in Robert Burns' poem "Tam O Shanter" grasping the tail of Tam's mare, her right breast bared. In the Scot's language 'cutty sark' means a short shirt or shift, it is interesting that despite that fact and the otherwise erotic nature of the figure, the carving is actually wearing quite a long shift, perhaps the Victorian era was much more at ease with t**s than with bums
Hercules Linton the designer of the 'Cutty Sark' was born in Inverbervie in 1837, the ship was built in Dumbarton by the firm Scott and Linton in 1869 and is now kept at Greenwich. (recently damaged by fire 2007). This memorial dedicated by the people of Inverbervie on 11th July 1997 replaces one unveiled by Sir Francis Chichester in 1969 (created by Scott Sutherland 1910 - 1984). Linton died in 1900 in the same house as he was born in and is buried in Inverbervie kirkyard.

Walking Gourdon to Inverbervie sea waterfall bridge
The Old Bridge of Inverbervie was completed in 1799 and was the third bridge to span the Bervie Water at this location. The first bridge was completed in 1474, possibly the handywork of Carmelite monks who had a friary at Inverbervie. The second bridge was a two span masonry arch,
