Angus is a small part of Scotland with a mighty history from Pictish times onwards – it is the birthplace of Scotland. The region was anciently called Angus after the brother of King Kenneth II to whom it was granted by the king after his victory over the Picts.
The signing of the Declaration of Arbroath at Arbroath Abbey in 1320 marked Scotland’s establishment as an independent nation. The majestic Glamis Castle which has been the ancestral seat to the Earls of Strathmore and Kinghorne since 1372 is the legendary setting for Shakespeare’s Macbeth.
