Artwork in Baile a' Mhanaich (Balavanich)
An attractive mosaic in a small park near the school in Baile a' Mhanaich.
This is not, however, one of the 'Roadends' sculptures (as I first thought it might be). That is in the grounds of the adjacent school. I now think that I did see the sculpture from a distance without realising that that was 'it'. In these enlightened times, lone males entering school grounds are regarded with extreme suspicion: if they have a camera then that is almost a confession of guilt. What nonsense! But it is, perhaps, a pity that those who located these 'Roadends' sculptures did not have regard to this issue.
There are many anglicised versions of the name Baile a' Mhanaich, including Balivanich, Ballivanich, and Bailivanish (the former name of the RAF airfield here). My 'Balavanich' comes from the 'Roadends' plaque in Image, which I assumed to be reasonably authoritative. I have been told that 'Balavanich' is a good indication to an English speaker of the pronunciation of Baile a' Mhanaich, and so I have used that version here.
