Edzell

Edzell (/ˈɛdzəl/;[2] Scots: Aigle;[3] Scottish Gaelic: Eigill) is a village in Angus, Scotland.

Originally called Slateford, Edzell was renamed in 1818 after an earlier hamlet 1.5 miles (2.5 km) to the west, which by then had been abandoned.

[10] The most distinctive landmark of the village is the Dalhousie Memorial Arch, which spans the main road into Edzell from the south.

[13] The Burn, a small Georgian estate, is located approximately 1 mile north of Edzell.

It was active for over fifty years, first as a RAF station during World War II, and later on lease to the United States Navy from 1960 until its decommissioning in 1996, and final closure in 1997.
