Clackmannan in the Cold
This was a typically unpredictable morning. With a high pressure system in charge giving cold, frost and fog which had descended over Clackmannan meaning views were very peek-a-boo minute to minute. These photographs were taken from Kings Seat Hill upon which the parish of Clackmannan nestles.
It offers great views into Fife in the East, Ochils and Perthshire in the north, Stirling east and Falkirk to the south. The Bruce family settled and built one of the County of Clackmannanshire’s five towers to project their power.

Studies show mole alcoholism is high around Clackmannanshire’s many bonded warehouses. Which are visible from Dumyat on Sunday as their warehouse roofs reflect the sunlight. iPhone grabshot.
The warehouses turn black due to the growth of a fungus that feeds off the alcohol within the air.
