A footpath culvert, Grimsay

3D Model

It seems strange, at first, that such a small trickle would be bridged when one could so easily step over. However not only is this a more elegant solution, but I’m sure if you were travelling with a wheelbarrow or hand cart, you would certainly be grateful for the effort which has been put into the provision of this stone covering.

It is on the old Scotvein pathway above Loch a’ Bhradain at NF 8544 5644, and is regularly used as one of the ‘Health Walk’ routes by the Ceann na h-Airigh Wednesday walking group. As ever, the walks start and end at the Centre’s Scandinavian Bakery/Cafe!

A one-metre range pole is nearby for scale, aligned N-S with red to north
