Whale dies on beach in Arbroath

A WHALE 40 foot long has washed up on a popular beach.

The baleen whale is thought to have been discovered by a dog walker yesterday morning near Arbroath Artisan Golf Club in Angus.

The whale has been confirmed by marine experts not to be one of the 27 pilot whales that washed up near St Andrews earlier this month.
