#StampStories it's Arainn, Arran.
Tha stampa Arainn a’ sealltainn Caisteal Bhreadhaig. Tha eachdraidh iongantach a’ dol air ais chun a’ 5mh linn aig an togalach seo a tha clàraichte aig Ìre A, agus tha gàrraidhean eireachdail mun cuairt air cuideachd. Cùm sùil a-mach airson nam
bòl-sheillean traidiseanta sa ghàrradh bhallach far am biodh seillein air an cumail.
The stamp for Arran symbolises Brodick Castle. This Grade A listed building has a rich history dating back to the 5th century and boasts beautiful grounds. Look out for the traditional boles in
the walled garden where bees would have been kept.
