About Angus
Angus is a council area on the east coast of Scotland, stretching from the North Sea shoreline inland through the fertile Strathmore valley to the high ground of the Angus Glens and the fringes of the Cairngorms.
Forfar is the county town and administrative centre, while Arbroath on the coast is the largest settlement — a town with deep historical significance as the place where the Declaration of Arbroath was signed in 1320.
The area divides naturally into three bands: the coastal strip with its harbours, beaches, and golf links; the broad agricultural plain of Strathmore running through the middle; and the Highland glens — Clova, Prosen, Isla, Esk, and Lethnot — that reach northward into the mountains.
Angus has a strong identity shaped by farming, fishing, and food — the Arbroath smokie and the Forfar bridie are both nationally recognised, and the soft fruit industry around Blairgowrie and Strathmore has been a mainstay for generations.
Transport links include the main east coast rail line serving Arbroath, Carnoustie, and Montrose, the A90 dual carriageway connecting Dundee to Aberdeen, and a network of rural roads that reach into some of the most scenic and least-visited parts of Highland Scotland.
