Loanhead of Myrietown
Image: © Anne Burgess Taken: 20 Apr 2022
This is exactly the sort of place I would have liked to live in when I was younger. Sheltered by a hill and forest to the north and east, with an open aspect to the south-west and a good view. No problems with noisy neighbours or passers-by dropping litter, but a long way from any shops, and very difficult to get to in a snowy winter. But it now sits almost underneath a wind turbine so I don't suppose anyone would want it now. The distant hill is Knock Hill.
