Places named in Scottish Country Dances
Many Scottish Country dances are named after places, or, have place names in their title. Alan Mills has found 400 that include places in Scotland and if you click on the World icon below a Google Earth file will open and you can zoom in on Scotland to see where those places are.
The Google Earth file will only open if Google Earth has been installed on your computer. You can download and install Google Earth free from the Google website.
