Dating from 1870, this dwelling overlooked Gweedore bay in northwest County Donegal. It's astonishing that people were living in these as late as the 1870's. To the left (with window) the human inhabitants lived, to the right the livestock were housed with a gully separating the two living areas to drain the animal waste away. It can't have been very comfortable.
I had a trip up to Canonbie this afternoon to take a few photos, and the trees along the riverbank were in full autumn colour .

The Byre Theatre is a theatre in St Andrews, Fife, Scotland. It was founded in 1933 by Charles Marford, an actor (found in the Who's Who of 1921) and Alexander B. Paterson, a local journalist and playwright, with help from a theatre group made up from members of Hope Park Church, St Andrews.
The University of St Andrews announced in August 2014 that the theatre was to reopen under the management of the University, after striking a deal with owners Fife Council and Creative Scotland.Quoted from Wikipedia
The Striding Arches are a series of three massive stone sandstone arches built on the hilltops around Cairnhead, near Moniaive. Built by renowned sculptor Andy Goldsworthy, the arches are complemented by another springing from an old byre at the foot of the valley. This walk starts from the byre and climbs up through the forest to visit one of the hilltop arches; it is possible to extend the route to visit a second arch along the hill ridge.
Rusty corrugated iron catches the sun on this barn in Corris. This may well have been the original farmhouse with attached byre although the roofing materials would have been different then.
And here we see a very tidy LA1211 XUS582S, 1977 Leyland Atlantean AN68 with Alexander AL body, a panoramic flat-top, new to Greater Glasgow PTE and seen in Strathclyde's Buses red on Church Street in Kelvinside with Byres Road in the background. Note the drivers mint green shirt! Anyone recognise him?

A recently delivered Wright Streetlite makes an unusual turn from Great Western Rd into Queen Margaret Drive while operating service 90 (Partick - Braehead). This is due to Byres Rd's closure for the annual West End Festival Carnival day celebrations.
Thought I'd give xpro another go (the first when Snappy Snaps on Byres road had run out of E6 was disappointing, as you'd expect from pictures that were taken for 'straight' processing) and got quite a few that worked rather nicely I think...
This was taken on the way home from work the Friday before I went to Tbilisi when the skies opened and although it was only 6-ish on a Friday it was dark as night. Huddled beneath an umbrella I flicked over to f2.8 and clicked at this.
How much has this landscape changed in the almost 200 years since the Hopetoun Monument was built? very little, I suspect.
Located on Byres Hill within the Garelton Hills, the Hopetoun Monument was built in memory of Sir John Hope, the 4th Earl of Hopetoun (1765 - 1823) in the year following his death. Hope was a hero of the Peninsular Wars (1808 - 14) and, amongst various properties, he owned Luffness House and its associated estates to the northwest. The inscription on the monument states:
This monument was erected to the memory of the Great and Good John Fourth Earl of Hopetoun by his affectionate and grateful tenantry in East Lothian. MDCCCXXIV
Visitors can climb the 132 steps of a dark spiral staircase, within the monument, to reach a platform which offers spectacular views in all directions.
Guess where I'm going next time I'm over that way?
Best city in the world though. And to be fair, it doesn't really get
that cold there. This is the corner of Byres Rd and Havelock St, March
2006 in the city's West End.
Kinkell was an estate to the east of St Andrews in Scotland. In the Middle Ages it was the site of a chapel, hospital, dovecote and a castle or manor house. The castle was an important location for conventicles in the period following the restoration of the House of Stuart. Little trace of the buildings remain, but the name is preserved in Kinkell Ness, Kinkell Braes, Kinkell Byre, Kinkell Farm and so on. The braes are now occupied by modern structures such as a caravan park, waste treatment plant, farm and golf course.
Dating from the 1800;s in the townland of Cruckalady near the village of Plumbridge, County Tyrone. Built on a sloping site it incorporated a byre for housing animals under the bedroom. The house was moved stone by stone to its new site at the Ulster Folk Museum in 1974.
