Lamlash is the largest village on
the Isle of Arran and is just south of Brodick.
It sits in a sheltered bay overlooking Holy Isle. All the main administrative functions for the
island can be found here, such as the hospital, high school and police station.

In the centre of Lamlash a
monument can be found to commemorate the ‘Clearances’. A time when rural
communities were forced move off the land and many emigrated to Canada.

But one of my favourite places is
an area called Dyemill. This is very
close to my home and where I frequently walk my dogs and take photographs.
There are many walks from the car park, along forest tracks, through woodland
and forest, past waterfalls and along rivers. The camera helps to remind me of the beauty to be found and how it changes through the seasons, so that I don't take it for granted.

ReplyDeleteFor anyone who comes to Scotland this is one place that has it all.
