    Seacliff House, built in 1750 when the Colt family held the lands, and remodelled in the 19th century by the architect David Bryce for George Sligo. The mansion was burnt out in 1907 and was not restored. The Royal Navy had a secret research establishment here during World War I. The fine beach at Seacliff is below the ruin.

    Thanks Alec. I came back for another look as it came up from TH-cam. Andrew and you were lucky. It is still a beautiful place. Sad that the fire took its future as a home. I imagine that a structural engineer would say it would need many millions to resurrect it for it to be liveable again. The beach and sea view was brilliant. I imagine that there would have stupendous views from the top floor windows. Those three horses were lovely too. A nice video.
    Edit: I don’t understand why the numpties need to graffiti the places they go to while you and your colleagues can go to these same places, have an enjoyable time but only take your videos and photos, and only leaving your footprints. Thank you.

Any chance you will go to some WW2 bunkers and stuff, cuz my ancestry is ScottsIrish and my family served in the War so it's really cool to see Scotland with some Scots Take Care Brother and be safe out there Laddy

      Trespassing is not really a thing in Scotland. I believe you are free to roam so long as you don't interfere with livestock or vandalize the land. There are many peaks that a lot of people attempt to get to in a certain amount of time and this is how they are able to.
