NH7157 : Near the SW corner of Viewmount Wood

taken 1 year ago, near to Fortrose, Highland, Scotland

Near the SW corner of Viewmount Wood
All attempts to enter Viewmount Wood failed. The electrified fence was the most serious hazard. However I could find little weakness in the wood's boundary. The natural access is barred by an over-high locked gate and tall fencing. I do wonder if the security is linked to another area of the wood, marked as continuous deciduous woodland on OS Mapping, that contains buildings and cars hidden in the centre of the wood. Such is seen from today's aerial imagery. All very strange. The site is at NH 717574.
