More about this scene
The village of Palnackie is set in a region of wooded hills and streams. It was for centuries an important port, and sailing ships plied up the meandering course of the Urr to unload their cargoes, many having to be towed by teams of horses. Silting up has made it difficult for large vessels to continue to use Palnackie port, and visits have been restricted in recent years to smaller pleasure craft, and more modest fishing and cockling boats.
