Exploring Abandoned WW2 Defences - Tentsmuir Forest, Fife
Spring Drive From St Andrews To Tayport Fife Scotland
Tour Scotland travel video of a Spring road trip drive, with Scottish music, on the the A91 and A914 roads from St Andrews, on ancestry visit to Balmullo, and then East on the the A914 and B945 roads from Balmullo on ancestry visit to he harbour in Tayport, Fife. Balmullo was the home of the picture postcard cartoonist Martin Anderson known as Cynicus who was born in 1854. After his mother, Margaret Martin, separated from his father, she moved with her children to Cambuslang, Glasgow. Anderson studied at Glasgow School of Art under Robert Greenlees, in Ingram Street Glasgow. He died suddenly on 14 April 1932 and was buried in the Martin family grave in Tayport Old Churchyard. The funeral was never paid for and his grave is unmarked, without a tombstone. Tayport Harbour was arguably the world's first roll on roll off ferry crossing the Tay at Tayport and over to Broughty Ferry. The current harbour was rebuilt 1847 by the Edinburgh and Northern Railway as a basin formed by a pier and two quays; it was the terminus of the ferry to Broughty Ferry which served to complete the link up of the east coast railway between Edinburgh and Aberdeen. The harbour fell into disuse for that purpose when the first Tay Rail bridge was built but was then brought back into use as a rail ferry link when the first Tay bridge was destroyed in a storm in 1879. The Harbour was eventually taken over by a Timber processing company, Donaldsons of Tayport, and was used by cargo boats of up to 3000 tons carrying potatoes, grain, esparto grass and timber until the 1980s when the timber firm began to wind down its operation.
TAYPORT LINKS CARAVAN PARK
After publishing the Sunny Tayport video, the owners of Tayport Links Caravan Park got in touch asking if I minded popping further along the Fife coast to film their place. Read more:

Finding Seals at Tentsmuir Forest & Beach - Visit Scotland - VLOG 16
Dave has been telling me there are seals in Scotland for ages but has not shown me any, today we headed to Tentsmuir where we were told there would definitely be some.
We unfortunately got the tide times wrong but sure enough we found the seals sunbathing on the beach, we couldn't get very close due to the sea surrounding us at super speed but what a beautiful place we found :)
If you have any suggestions of places to visit in Scotland or some activities we can do over the next few weeks please let us know :)

Description
Fife Cycle loop - Start and End Tay Road Bridge
This is one of my regular cycle routes around Fife, taking in Newport on Tay, Wormit, Bottomcraig and Balmerino, Gauldry, Kilmany, Logie, Balmullo, Leuchars, Guardbridge, St. Andrews, back to Leuchars, Tentsmuir Forest and Tayport.
There are a few steep climbs (slow ones if you're on knobbly 2.3 tyres!), including one up a rutted, grassy track. You can shorten the loop by about 14 miles by heading straight into Gauldry from Wormit and cutting out St. Andrews, and you can easily add another 10 - 15 miles by exploring some of the trails in Tentsmuir.
I got caught out with a bit of chain suck just outside Balmerino, which you'll hear on the soundtrack, and I had a bit of a cold, so apologies for the occasional cough and the continual sniffing.

Scotlands Ancient Forest pt2
Our ancient ancestors lived a hunter gatherer lifestyle for thousands of years. In this close communion with nature eating plants, known more commonly today as herbal medicines or weeds was commonplace. How did our ancestors know what to eat? It was not by trial and error. In this beautiful clip Prof. Ian Stewart communes with nature as our ancestors did and experiences the truly meditative nature of life lived in harmony with ones environment.
