Before you leave Montrose, stop off at the Montrose Air Station Heritage Centre to learn about the station’s part in aviation history. Built in 1913, just before the beginning of WWI, Montrose Air Station was Britain’s first operational military airfield. Discover the stories of the people who lived and worked at the station, step back in time in replica rooms and snap pictures of the centre’s replica spitfire. Alternatively golfers can enjoy a round of links golf at nearby Montrose Golf Links.
