Two stories from Aberdeenshire this week, looking at Crimond Kirk's famous 61-minute clock and its origins, why it had one too many strokes on the clock face, and how the village reacted to well-meaning Polish ex-serviceman who tried to rectify the problem after WW2; also Crimond Aerodrome and its part in WW2 as HMS Merganzer, run by the Admiralty. Both stories came from "Hidden Aberdeenshire: the Coast" published in 2014.
