NS2785 : Former site of sheepfold

taken 11 years ago, near to Blairvadach, Argyll And Bute, Scotland

Former site of sheepfold
Former site of sheepfold
The fence on the left is the one that is shown in NS2785 : Moorland fence above Rhu, and the present picture was taken in the same area. The 1:25000 map and larger-scale mapping show a sheepfold here, but there are no standing remains; at best, the outline could be picked out on the ground.

Nevertheless, its former location can still be discerned in this photograph by the taller, greener rushes growing there, in the area behind the gap in the wall and the metal post.
