Through the canyon-like Pass of Glencoe and out onto Rannoch Moor, and the only building for miles is: Kingshouse Hotel, mid-18th century, now much modernised and extended to cater for the hillclimbing brigade that has replaced 'drovers, pedlars, soldiers and travellers' as its main clients. The original inn is still visible at its core, attractively sited beside Caulfeild's bridge of 1751-2. It was described by Dorothy Wordsworth in 1803 as 'a large square building, cased in blue slates to defend it from storms ...'.
