Milton of Crathes is a restored set of 17th century stone buildings, presently used for retail and restaurant purposes. The historic site is associated with, and was previously an outlier of Crathes Castle. The location is close to the terminus of the Royal Deeside Railway.
Coy Burn passes through the Milton of Crathes complex immediately before discharging to the River Dee.
Famous quotes containing the word milton:
“So Lycidas sunk low, but mounted high
Through the dear might of him that walkd the waves,
Where other groves and other streams along
With nectar pure his oozy locks he laves
And hears the unexpressive nuptial song
In the blessd kingdoms meek of joy and love.
There entertain him all the saints above
In solemn troops and sweet societies,
That sing, and singing in their glory move,
And wipe the tears for ever from his eyes.”
—John Milton (16081674)
