Clachan Sound from the Fairy Foxglove adorned wall of the hump back bridge at Clachan on the Isle of Seil which is one of the Slate Islands, slateislands.org.uk Because both ends of the sound are open to the sea it is known as "The Bridge over the Atlantic" I prefer a large view! HWW to everyone!

This tiny souvenir shop (Only open during tourist season) adjacent to the Clachan Bridge is owned by the Tig and Truish Inn (Cish an Cruish) which is opposite. The sign says, The old pub was used by islanders after the Jacobite uprising to change from trousers back into the forbidden kilt when returning to the Island. The electrical wiring on the right of the building looks past its best ;-) HWW!

Seil Sound and Narrows,

On the left the Isle of Seil which is one of the Slate Islands* and across the fast flowing narrows is the mainland at Clachan. The short pier and slipway in the image foreground was I assume for the ferry which ran before a bridge was built in the late 18th century, This is now known as the Bridge over the Atlantic. *The Slate Islands are an island group in the Inner Hebrides, lying immediately off the west coast of Scotland, north of Jura and southwest of Oban. The main islands are Seil, Easdale, Luing, Shuna, Torsa and Belnahua. Slates quarried here were exported all over the world, HWW to one and all.

Captured from the Isle of Seil the Clachan Bridge at the point it crosses the Clachan Sound it is also known as the bridge over the Atlantic because both ends of the sound connect to the Atlantic Ocean. In my opinion large is better

Clachan Bridge & Pip

Otherwise known as The Bridge Over The Atlantic and shown at low tide, Built in 1792, its graceful arch crosses the Sound of Seil and onto Seil Island. Going by the slight change in stone colour the walls that protect the road may have been raised at some time, On black please. www.youtube.com/watch?v=q_GkjymuQ9U is the link for Sight and Sound
