In harmony with nature!
In harmony with nature!
Should the call of nature occur while ambling through the wood at Mountain West, fear not, for who could resist the attractions of this completely natural ergonomically designed green latrine?! The mainly conifer plantation it grows within offers this discreetly placed commode for the benefit of woodcutters - no doubt an ad hoc arrangement designed by the woodsmen themselves. The curiosity of the latrine is only surpassed by the name of the locality itself - Mountain West derives directly from the Gaelic, An tSliabh Thiar. Clearly, something is lost in translation here as this mountain must be the most vertically challenged of any to be found on this planet due to the unfortunate fact of being completely flat! and reaching the noble height of 22 metres above sea level! The word Sliabh must surely have other connotations besides “Mountain”, one suggestion being that it might also mean “Moor.” LinkExternal link
