Island in the Isla
The island may owe its existence to the lade from the Mill of Towie, which rejoins the River Isla just here at the Bridge of Auchindachy.

River Isla
The river meanders round a shingle bank just upstream of the bridge. Flattened grass shows that the shingle must have been well under water during the recent spates.

Auchindachy station (remains), 1997
View northwards, towards Keith etc.: ex-GNSR (Aberdeen) - Keith - Craigellachie - Elgin/Boat of Garten line. The station was closed when the regular passenger service ceased on 6/5/68, but although closed for goods in 11/71 the line survived to convey Excursions to - and whisky from, Dufftown at least until 1/91. The track remaining here in 1997 was saved and the Keith & Dufftown Heritage Railway reintroduced trains over it to Drummuir in 6/2000 and on to Keith on 18/8/01,'reopening' Auchindachy station.

Auchindachy Toll House
The oblique walls show that this was originally a toll house. It would have had windows placed obliquely in each wall so that the toll keeper could easily see approaching traffic. The windows have been bricked up since Image] was taken and the door enlarged to turn it into a garage.
