Friday's Fascinating Fact: Mountaineer Sir Hugh Munro, who grew up on a family estate near Kirriemuir, gave his name to some of Scotland's most well-known landmarks. 

Sir Munro is best known for his list of Scottish munros - mountains which have reached over 3,000ft. In 1889, Sir Munro was a founding member of the Scottish Mountaineering Club, and the original munro list was published in the club journal in 1891. The list has been revised since, with some hills being demoted and others promoted, as a result of increasing accuracy of heighting technology. 

Sadly, Sir Munro did not manage to climb all of the mountains on his list before his death in 1919, but his legacy lives on, with over 4,000 people completing the list, many of whom are recorded in the SMC journal.
