    WELCOME TO FORFAR GOLF CLUB Forfar Golf Club was founded in 1871 and is a mature wooded Heathland course located only 12 miles from the 2007 Open Championship venue in Carnoustie. The Original course was laid out by four times Open Champion Old Tom Morris of St.Andrews in 1871. Alterations were made by James Braid in 1926. One of the most difficult holes is undoubtedly the 12th, a 444 yard par 4, but the 412th yard 15th is suitably named “Braids Best” after the five times Open Champion. Whilst Forfar is an inland course the tight undulating Heathland fairways combined with a classical layout creates conditions akin to links golf. This compact golf course is in the heart of picturesque Angus and provides the ideal test for all abilities of golfer and will provide an enjoyable and memorable day for anyone wishing to play golf in Scotland. In 1871 James Brodie persuaded Colonel Dempster of Dunnichen to permit the playing of golf over 50 acres to the east of the town and under Brodie’s impetus Forfar Golf Club was formed. In 1889 improved prosperity of the Club funded the building of a clubhouse and ladies were admitted to the Club in 1895. In 1920 the Club was able to purchase the course for £700 when its membership stood at 541. Among the club’s more celebrated personalities is Sandy Saddler, who after being Club Champion seven times went on to represent Scotland no less than ten times, and Britain fourteen times between 1959 and 1967. In 1967 he was the only player to win two singles in the Walker Cup.

The Picts, the Scots and the Celtic Britons fell into subjugation under the control of the expansionist Northumbrian kings and remained there for most of the seventh century.

  • N Nechtain, Fortriu and the Geography of the Picts
    The Scottish Historical Review, Volume LXXXV, 2: No. 220:October 2006, 182–201 ALEX WOOLF Dún Nechtain, Fortriu and the Geography of the Picts ABSTRACT In the nineteenth century the Pictish kingdom of Fortriu and the site of the Battle of Nechtansmere were located by scholars in Menteith and Strathearn and at Dunnichen in Forfarshire respectively. These identifica- tions have largely gone unchallenged. The purpose of this article is to review the evidence for these locations and to suggest that there is in fact unambiguous evidence that Fortriu lay north of the Mounth on the shores of the Moray Firth and that a case can be made that Nechtansmere was fought in Badenoch. Fortriu has long been recognised as the core terri- tory of Pictavia and its re-location in the North has profound implications for our understanding of the course of early Scottish History. In this paper I shall be suggesting two revisions to the way we think about the geography of northern Britain in the early middle ages. The first concerns the location of the Battle of Dún Nechtain, fought between Ecgfrith of Northumbria and the Picts in 685. The second concerns the location of the Pictish province or kingdom of Fortriu. Neither sugges- tion is entirely dependent upon the other so the reader may wish to accept one without the other. They are presented together because they each point to the same conclusion: that the North was more significant in Pictish history than has previously been supposed.1 Dún Nechtain, 685 In the year of our Lord 684 Ecgfrith, king of the Northumbrians, sent an army to Ireland under his dux Berht, who wretchedly devastated a harmless race that had always been most friendly to the English, and his hostile bands spared neither churches nor monasteries.

  • Angus Maritime Trail
    Maritime Trail Walk in the steps of your ancestors www.angusheritage.com The Angus coastline is about 35 miles long, from north of Montrose to the outskirts of Dundee. When roads were poor, goods and people were carried along the coast by ship, and over a dozen distinct communities in Angus made their living from the vibrant and bustling coast. But the sea could be dangerous and unpredictable and many lives were lost through shipwrecks and storms. All Angus coastal settlements began as small villages, with residents earning part of their income from fishing. This fluctuated over time. Fishing villages grew if the conditions were right. Boats needed to be safe when not at sea, perhaps sailed into natural inlets on the rocky coast or hauled onto shingle beaches. Families needed ground where they could build houses with easy access to the shore, with somewhere Montrose harbour to land catches, prepare fish for sale and maintain boats, nets and lines. Houses could be built on narrow plots between the sea and coastal cliffs, or above those cliffs, with steep paths leading to the landing area. Some communities built harbours, providing shelter for moored boats and sites for fish markets and other maritime businesses. Montrose is a town that thrived as a seaport Montrose Basin - once known as the Land on the edge of rich farmland. The town’s of Sands - was a source of bait for fishing motto; Mare Ditat, Rosa Decorat (the sea communities along the Angus coastline. The enriches, the rose adorns) reflects its nature as shallow water, and regular exposure of sands, a trading town.
