Description
Arbroath, or Aberbrothock, is an ancient port dating back to Pictish times. In 1174 the founding of the Abbey began the recorded history of the town. There was a wooden pier at Arbroath by 1194, and the first harbour dated from 1394.
The name Aberbrothock means “mouth of the Brothock Burn” and has since evolved into the modern name, Arbroath. The Burn is significant in the development of the town as it provided the power for the flax mills which were built along its banks.
A popular holiday destination today Arbroath was especially popular in the 60s and 70s with residents of the Glasgow area. Attractions such as the Outdoor bathing pool (now long since gone), Kerr’s miniature railway (Established in 1935 and the oldest in Scotland), and the refreshing walks available along the “Cliffs” of the north east coast being ideal for families.
