The City of Brechin & District Community Council

The City of Brechin sits in the heart of the County of Angus, Scotland. The River South Esk  flows along the southern edge of Brechin with the hills of Glen Esk, Clova and Lethnot within easy reach, making the city an ideal centre for shooting, fishing, equestrian sports and hill walking. Brechin was traditionally a market town with weaving as its main industry but now has a diversity of businesses and industries; it is surrounded by a mix of farming land, wooded country estates and forestry.

Brechin has a museum, library, castle, leisure-centre, public park, caravan-camping site and hotel. The historic Cathedral with its famous 10th century Round Tower is the 'cradle' of the Ancient City and is complemented by a nearby Pictish hill fort on the White Caterthun.  

The purpose of this community council is to act as a voice for its area, in articulating the views and concerns of local people of the area on a wide range of issues of public concern including planning applications. The community council will make representations to Angus Council, other public bodies and private agencies on matters within their sphere of interest.
