More about this scene

The village of Braemar is situated on the banks of Cluny Burn. It was here, in 1715, that a number of Scottish lords, including the Earl of Mar, met on the pretext of a hunting trip to plan an uprising against the House of Hanover, with the object of returning the Stuarts to the throne of Scotland. Among later visitors to the village was Robert Louis Stevenson—while spending a winter here he wrote 'Treasure Island'.
