Watch : Prince Charles visits north east to check on Storm Arwen recovery
Duke of Rothesay meets locals affected by devastating winds
Last updated 14th Jan 2022
Prince Charles has been meeting residents in the north east involved in the clear-up operation after Storm Arwen.
Over 100,000 trees were uprooted on the Haddo Estate in Aberdeenshire at the end of November as winds of up to 100mph hit the area.
Efforts to clear the once-dense woodlands of fallen trees ahead of replanting have only just begun.
Charles spoke to landscape manager Oliver Deeming and head of visitor services Susanna Atkinson as he walked the "Scots Mile" road towards the National Trust for Scotland property at the centre of the estate, Haddo House.
At the house, the prince met representatives from Aberdeenshire Council, the police and power provider SSEN to hear about the impact of Storm Arwen and the state of recovery efforts.
The country park is currently closed to visitors for safety reasons due to the storm damage.
