A Very Rural Turnstile

Image: © Paul McLennan Taken: 16 May 2023

No expects the Inquisition . . . or to pech to the top of a rocky crag and have to negotiate a turnstile. Neatly in the frame is the Buffalo Hut, a very stylish bothy so called by locals as it sits in the park on the slope of Birnam Hill where Sir William Drummond Stewart kept a small herd of American Bison. Souvenirs of his adventures with the Mountain Men across the Great Plains and into the Rockies in the 1830s.
