Yes, you can have an "Ell" of a time there as well.

Re: Pickled Egg Quiz
Back. Got what I needed
Anyway, here is the web page that encapsulates it all
https://www.britainexpress.com/attracti ... ction=5035
Fasque House was being used as a Wedding Venue for a while. Don't know if it still is. It has always had sporadic public opening times in al the years I have known about.
The Ramsay Arms is/was a nice place to eat and drink in.

Re: Pickled Egg Quiz
It is often supposed that the Arches in Fettercairn, Edzell and Dundee were all linked in time and purpose, but they were not.
Edzell's Arch still stands and is magnificent and the area is well worth a delve. Dundee's Arch doesn't and they still don't know how to celebrate it.

Well done if you found this, and you now know what an Ell is.

Re: Pickled Egg Quiz
Yes came across the "ell" on the wiki page for Fettercairn.
Presume its the same measure as the Dunkeld "ell", with the common or garden word elbow coming from it.

Re: Pickled Egg Quiz
Ells could vary a bit. Hence the eventual practice of having an Ell measure in market places so you could calibrate your Ell to a locally held "standard Ell"
The plaque says it all.
