Airlie Monument - a photo on Flickriver

Airlie Monument

            Airlie Monument, Angus.

Well worth the trek and only open on rare occasions. We had just arrived in Angus and the Queen's funeral cortege dominated our thoughts and most other folks judging by the crowds that had gathered at various places on the A90 on this Sunday in September 2022.

Open doors day is one such day that the monument is normally open and thankfully for most of the day. There is very little parking here and the road winds and narrows as it gets further up the glen and towards the western edge of Angus.

Well worth the walk up the hill to the monument and the climb to the top of the monument. Word of warning if you ever go: various birds and maybe bats find refuge in the insides of the tower and every flat surface on the very dark stairway is covered in poo. Gloves and/or hand steriliser are the order of the day when you get back down but the views are fantastic. The volunteers on the day were great, very friendly and informative.
