About Newtyle

Newtyle is a small village beneath the Sidlaw Hills on the southern edge of Strathmore, about 10 miles north of Dundee, with a modest claim to railway history - it was the terminus of the Dundee and Newtyle Railway, one of Scotland's earliest lines, opened in 1831.

The village has a primary school, a church and a quiet character shaped by the agricultural landscape of the Strathmore plain around it.

The Sidlaw Hills immediately to the south offer accessible hillwalking with wide views over the Tay valley and Strathmore.

About Angus

(opens in new tab)

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 across the Strathmore valley 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.
