Field Visit (April 2023)
NO 83260 72136 Visited during fieldwork by SCAPE. One half of the stone foundations of a railway turntable visible in the grass. This is depicted on the 2nd edition OS nearby a building with a spur of line going into it - presumably an engine shed which doesn't survive. These features are the remains of the northern terminus of the Montrose-Bervie line (the 'Bervie branch'). It was opened (as Bervie station) on 1 November 1865, was renamed Inverbervie station on 5 July 1926, and closed to regular passenger traffic on 1 October 1951.
