048 | Leaving the scene of wild sterility at the Preventive Station, we find ourselves close upon the picturesque fishing village of Collieston, straggling over the braes, and among the cliffs which encircle its romantic little bay. This place, for several months during the summer, is much frequented, in spite of its scanty accommodations, by visitors from the interior parts of the country, who, tempted by its downy braes and salubrious air, come here for the benefit of sea-bathing. |
