Arbirlot Falls

Arbirlot Falls is a 23-foot waterfall on the Elliot Water, located in the village of Arbirlot in Angus, Scotland, approximately two miles west of Arbroath.

The fast-flowing drop sits just below the road bridge over the burn and is considered one of the most memorable features along the Arbirlot Natural Trail.

The falls draw visitors to the waterside and are regarded as a scenic highlight of this quiet rural parish.

The village name itself derives from "Aberelliot," meaning mouth of the Elliot, reflecting the central role the river has long played in the area's character.
