Forfarshire - LoveToKnow 1911 |
 | | Forfarshire is characterized by great variety of surface and may be divided physically into four well-marked sections. |
| | The glens of the Forfarshire Grampians are remarkable for their beauty, and several of them for the wealth of their botanical specimens. |
| | The largest and finest of them are Glen Isla, in which are the ruins of Forter Castle, destroyed by Argyll in 1640, and the earl of Airlie's shooting-lodge of the Tulchan; Glen Clova, near the entrance to which stands Cortachy Castle, the seat of the earl of Airlie; Glen Esk and Glen Prosen. |
