The Clatterin brig can be found at the East side of the Cairn o Mount.
My grandfather was one of the men that made the fords from the Clatterin Brig through Drumtochty Glen
This little bridge and the area which we associate with the name are tucked right in at the foot of the Cairn o' Mount Road, and have long been a favourite spot with locals and tourists alike. Here the name is almost self-explanatory......Clatterin' as in rattling or noisy, Brig as in Bridge or a crossing of stepping stones. In fact it was not until the 1770s that a bridge was built over the Devilly Burn to accommodate travellers crossing the Cairn or traversing the Glen of Drum- tochty.
Although there is now only a restaurant at the Clatterin' Brig, at one time there was quite a settlement of crofts and homesteads,
