The United Kingdom is not generally associated with earthquakes,
however, these islands are still rocked by a few hundred jolts a year,
although only 20 or 30 of them could be felt by the population.
Yet, the world's first seismometer was built and installed in Scotland
at a place called Comrie. A functional replica of it is still housed in
the 'Earthquake House,' built on the grassy slopes of The Ross.
