- Drumlithie abstract "Drumlithie is a village in the northeast of Scotland in the area known as the Howe o' the Mearns. Situated seven miles south of Stonehaven in Aberdeenshire, it is affectionately known by locals as 'Skite', although the origin of this name remains disputed.Previously a weaving village, Drumlithie has a small steeple at its heart which was rung to signal the start and end of the working day. Ask a local what happens to the steeple when it rains and it is sure to raise a smile. Story has it that villagers are so proud of it that they take it in when it rains. These days the only time the bell can be heard ringing round the village is to welcome in the New Year.Drumlithie is noted for its appearance in the classic Lewis Grassic Gibbon novel, 'Sunset Song', while neighbouring Glenbervie is the final resting place of the great grandparents of famous Scottish poet Robert Burns. Drumlithie is also twinned with Couture D'Argenson in France.The village school is called Glenbervie Primary, and is attended by local children from the village and surrounding area. Other amenities include a pub, bowling green, two parks and a village hall. Drumlithie has its village shop back - Steeple Shop opened on 9 April 2012.The larger of the two parks contains a football pitch and tennis court, and serves as the school playing field. It also plays host to the annual Drumlithie Gala, which is held on the second Saturday of June each year - so June 8, 2013 - with raffle stalls, coconut shy, kids & adult races and lots, lots more it's a great day to visit the village. The finale of the gala is the Single vs Married Men's football match, which is a good humoured, but fiercely contested game.Drumlithie has two church services every month. On the first Sunday, there is a Church of Scotland meeting at Glenbervie Parish Church just outside the village and on the fourth Sunday, Drumlithie Community Church meets either at the village hall or Bowling club.".
