Arbroath

My email address includes a reference to a famous Scot namesake cartoon gardener & the date of the Declaration of Arbroath ( which Tom Jefferson kept on an easel by his desk as he drafted the American Declaration of Independence).  And the smokies are great

WHAT ARE ARBROATH SMOKIES? Arbroath smokies are are small haddock which have been shot-smoked using a 200 year old process. The haddock are typically caught in the North Sea and north-east Atlantic Ocean and landed in Scottish harbours.
The remains of the abbey.  I didn’t see the fencing of other old piles and I wonder if the mortar was a different mix? The stones are apparently a red sandstone.
Nice harbour.
