Immediately below this channel, and into which the water falls, is a black and deep pool, so deep, that the natives say that it has no bottom. The Linn is spanned by a very beautiful bridge, on which is the following inscription. This Bridge, over the Linn of Dee, Erected by James, Fifth Earl of Fife, was opened on the 8th September, 1857 by H.M. [Her Majesty] Queen Victoria. |
