Main Street , Cawdor , Moray, Scotland
Less well known than Cawdor Castle is the small village of Cawdor, which lies just to its west, across the steep-sided valley of the Allt Dearg as it flows north to meet the River Nairn. This grew largely as an estate village serving the castle, and much of it comprises attractive stone cottages set in beautifully tended gardens. The link with the castle is very obvious and direct: for example one cottage bears an inscription over the front door: "21 April 1881. In memory of Sarah Mary, Countess of Cawdor."
