NARRATIVE
ON PRINT - The
Cliffs may be reached from Boulzie Hill by
one or other of two roads—a lower and
higher. The lower is the old East Links road,
leading to the disused quarry at the Ness,
from which the Corporation of Arbroath were
entitled to take stones to be employed in
the public works of the town. Along the land
side of the road a footpath was made in the
hard times of the winter of 1878-79, with
funds subscribed for the purpose, by unemployed
artisans and labourers. The sea side of the
road is bounded by the Seaton bulwark—a
work erected at large cost, and which, within
the last fifteen years, the sea has made a
ruin. The higher road, from which a fine view
seaward is obtained, is a continuation of
the Boulzie Hill footpath. (Notes by George
Hay, 1883)
