Achmelvich Castle

Also referred to as the Hermit's Castle, but I rather like the implication that it's some ancient ruin, rather than a fabulous fifties architecture-student project.

 

I love the way it just grows out of the landscape, both metaphorically and literally - the aggregate mixed into the concrete clearly comes from the immediate area. Dragging all that cement there must've been hard work...

 

As you see, I rather enjoyed photographing this place...
