Five Glens of Angus facts for kids
The Five Glens of Angus are the five Highland glens located in the western portion of the Angus region of Scotland. The five glens from westernmost to easternmost are:
- Glen Isla
- Glen Prosen
- Glen Clova
- Glen Lethnot
- Glen Esk
Glen Clova is remarkable for its glaciated landscape, with the deep trough-heads of Glen Doll and Corrie Fee, an array of classic corries (glacial cirques) along its NE rim - notably Corrie Bonhard, Corrie of Clova, Corrie Brandy and Corrie Wharrel, and a cluster of diverse "rock slope failures" (rock slides, avalanches, and deformations) including The Rives on Cairn Broadlands, and several in the corries
In 2015 red kites at the Gannochy estate in Glenesk were found to have been stealing swimmers' underwear, including pants and socks to line their nest.
