NG7500 : The road to the west

taken 2 years ago, near to Aultvoulin, Highland, Scotland

The road to the west
The road to the west
Part of the restricted length of tarmac on the Knoydart peninsula, with locals suggesting that there's around 6-7 miles of 'decent' road. Some vehicles come here to slowly die as MOT failures can still run around the area [not sure about road tax] until they expire. The only way for vehicles to get here is by a sort of tank landing craft from Mallaig. On our visit we saw an expired VW Golf being towed to the pier for its last journey to Mallaig and the scrapyard.
