On-line Digital Images | DP 175333 | The lower end of the canal’s outlet to the sea, photographed at low water.

 |
On-line Digital Images | DP 175349 | Access to Rubh’ an Dùnain is not easy. By land the loch is a 5-mile trek each way, often in poor weather and carrying equipment. This severely restricted work on the site in 2009. (Colin Martin) | 2008 | Item Level |
