HU3048 : Burn of Lomabak

taken 5 years ago, near to Garderhouse, Mainland, Shetland Islands, Scotland

Burn of Lomabak
Burn of Lomabak
The tiny diagonal streak in the bottom right foreground is the burn of Lomabak where it crosses the old roadway that ran from Garderhouse to Selivoe.
The old road disappears off to the SW in the background of this shot. I don't know when this track was used last. I've followed most of the track and saw no sign that a vehicle had made passage in years. It would take a fairly specialised vehicle to even attempt it as it's very grown in and more like a canal than a road in stretches.
