Brechin

Brechin is a burgh in Angus, Scotland. The town is well known for the tenth century Brechin Cathedral. For many years it was considered a city because of its status as the seat of a diocese of the Episcopal Church of Scotland although it is actually a town as it lacks a city charter. However, the football club is still known as Brechin City. The 2001 census recorded Brechin's population as 7 199.
