An iron age broch from around 2000 years ago. Unfortunately some of the stones from this broch were taken to build the Bernera Barracks: www.ipernity.com/doc/davidyork/51291936 Unusually close to another broch: www.ipernity.com/doc/davidyork/51295966 More photos of this broch: www.ipernity.com/doc/davidyork/51295938 www.ipernity.com/doc/davidyork/51295940 www.ipernity.com/doc/davidyork/51295942

On a walk later in the holiday we stood at the bottom of the pylon you can see. It is taking electricity from the mainland over to Skye. The ferry doesn't appear to be coming from the other side of the Kyle, but that's cause it has to fight a very strong tidal current. So despite being a very short crossing, the route the ferry takes varies a lot through the day.

Built by the British government (started in 1717) to try and quell Jacobite uprising.

The Skye Ferry running from Glenelg to Kylerhea on Skye. It is, apparently, the last manually operated turntable ferry in existence.

Southbound on the road to Arnisdale and Corran. These signs are for about 30m of road between the 20mph limit and national limit. Couldn't quite work out the need for them!
