Take a trip around this quaint little village within a city. Going
is all paved and mostly level, not being that keen on multi's
myself but really fancied designing one so its short and the area
is limited. The Co-ords are the parking and start.
Footdee, better known as Fittie, lies at the south end of
Aberdeen's beach esplanade, near the North Pier and the harbour
entrance. Fittie is often thought to be a corruption of Footdee,
but as long ago as the 13th century it was called Foty or Futty. It
was anglicised to Footdee when it was moved to a new site at the
mouth of the River Dee. The village has its back to the sea,
turning away from the ocean's stormy petulance, but on a rough day
the spray still comes pattering over the rooftops. The cottages
were built around two main squares, North Square and South Square,
and Middle Row and Pilot Square were added later
The final cache is a nano, a little cache for a little multi in a little village. Please replace it in the exact same place.
