This close running between the High Street and loch illustrates the original nature of the long rigs which occupied the ground between the street and loch. The buildings on the left in this view were built in 2008 and at one stage, threatened to cut off access to the loch. Local pressure ensured that this did not happen. See Image] for the High Street opening of the close.
