Header Slides
Today's header slides are of Inveraray Castle, a magnificent chateau that would look as much at home in the Loire Valley as it does in Argyll; and the replica Spitfire in the Memorial Garden on the site of RAF Grangemouth.

In Focus
Delgatie
Castle stands some two miles east of Turriff in

then Earl of Buchan. ( More ...)
