Edinburgh
United Kingdom > Scotland > Edinburgh
Some have called Edinburgh the Athens of the North for a variety of reasons. The earliest comparison between the two cities showed that they had a similar topography, with the Castle Rock of Edinburgh performing a similar role to the Athenian Acropolis. Both of them had flatter, fertile agricultural land…

Aberdeen
United Kingdom > Scotland > Aberdeen
Two weather stations collect climate data for the area, Aberdeen/Dyce Airport, and Craibstone. Both are about 4 1⁄2 miles (7 km) to the north west of the city centre, and given that they are in close proximity to each other, exhibit very similar climatic regimes. Dyce tends to have marginally warmer daytime…

Loch Lomond and The Trossachs National Park
United Kingdom > Scotland > Stirling
The park straddles the Highland Boundary Fault, which divides it into two distinct regions - lowland and highland - that differ in underlying geology, soil types and topography. The change in rock type can most clearly be seen at Loch Lomond itself, as the fault runs across the islands of Inchmurrin, Creinch,…

Mull of Kintyre
Ailsa Craig and the County Antrim coast of Ulster and Rathlin Island are all clearly visible from the Mull. On clearer days it is also possible to make out Malin Head in Inishowen in County Donegal in the west of Ulster, and the Ayrshire coast on the other side of Ailsa Craig. Other islands in the Firth of…

Invergarry Castle
United Kingdom > Scotland > Highland > Invergarry
The survey drawing shows a plan and elevations of the castle, called the 'Castle of Glangary' on the drawing. The drawing may appear misleading, as more than one facade is joined together, but by cross-referencing the lettering on the plan to the elevations the appearance can be judged.
Altitude moyenne : 150 m
South Ayrshire
The number of hours of natural sunshine in South Ayrshire is controlled by the length of day and by cloudiness. In general, December is the dullest month and May or June the sunniest. Sunshine duration decreases with increasing altitude, increasing latitude and distance from the coast. Local topography also…

Newmachar
United Kingdom > Scotland > Aberdeenshire
The village is on fairly level terrain at an elevation of 100m, an elevation which proved challenging for the design of the old Formartine and Buchan Railway running to the Village. There are a number of springs and burns around the village notably Pinkie Burn to the SE and the longer Burn of Straloch to the…
