Maisley
This is not the main farm at Maisley, but a separate cottage 600 metres away. It isn't marked on the 1872 1:10,560 map, but I think it may be Maisley Cottage.

Inquisitive Cattle
When we paused to look over the gate, the cattle came over to look at us as we looked at them. Their ear tags bore not only their number, but also their names.

Keith to Dufftown Railway
Looking towards Keith from the overbridge at Maisley. The buildings in the middle distance are the knackery at Douglasbrae. The railway operates only in summer, as a tourist attraction, which accounts for the undisturbed snow outlining both rails and sleepers - though the slight wobble a hundred yards or so along is a bit worrying!

Pillbox
It seems a bit strange to find a pillbox so far from the coast, but I imagine it was for keeping watch on the nearby railway line. I didn't realise that the same pillbox has already been Geographed Image]

Neuk of Maisley
This house near Maisley isn't shown on the 1872 Ordnance Survey map, so presumably dates from the late 19th century. It is just above the site of the former Maisley Lime Works, which was already disused by 1872. The limeworks lay on an outcrop of Upper Dalradian limestone which can be traced from Shetland to Kintyre, and again in Ireland.
