The iconic spring landscape of Nachisan, Nachikatsuura. This image captures the vertical contrast between the 133-meter Nachi Falls, the crimson Three-Story Pagoda, and the blooming cherry blossoms under the clear sky of early April 2026. A primary visual record documenting the sacred harmony of the Kumano Nachi Taisha and Seiganto-ji temple grounds.

The "Saito-daigoma" fire ritual, performed by Yamabushi (ascetic monks) at Oyunohara, the original site of Kumano Hongu Taisha.
This ritual is held on the final day of the Kumano Hongu Taisha Annual Festival, following the "Togyosai" procession. Amidst the fresh greenery of the spring mountains, the sacred fire is lit as a prayer for purification.

The "Yasabaki-shinji" ritual, part of the "Saitei-shinji" ceremonies held at Oyunohara.
During this ritual, fathers carry their children (Chigo) on their shoulders onto straw mats. The children beat small drums as their fathers rotate their bodies—three times to the left, three times to the right, and three more times to the left—a sequence repeated three times. This traditional act is considered a rite to invite the divine spirit into the children.

While Berresfords and Stoniers could fix most things between them, it wasn't the case with this Leyland National, which was a great shame, as it was notably Scotland's first National when new to Hutchison of Overtown. It failed to impress them, and was sold locally to Irvine of Law in 1978, who liked it even less, and passed it on to Stonier a year later. However, it wasn't long before engine failure caused it to be parked up, and put on the "to do when not busy" list - an unlikely scenario here ! Inevitably, the scrapman took it away in the end.

KVA was founded by Kenneth Vincent Atwell in the early 1980s. Ken Atwell was then working for Ford in Swansea when he first toyed with the idea of building his first replica. When fate leant a hand, Ford had requested that Ken help with the restoration of their own Mk3 car that had been involved in a filming accident. As there was no budget for the restoration Ken agreed to their request, completing the work in his home workshop with the proviso that he was allowed to take moulds from the body panels which he would later use to construct his own replica. He designed his own spaceframe chassis which exceeded the torsional strength required. By late 1982 his first car was complete and was displayed in the reception area at the plant. With Ford’s blessing, Ken formed a small company called KVA and began manufacturing kits that could be built up as replicas. He continued his full-time work as a Senior Engineer at Ford and, with the KVA developing rapidly his wife stepped in as business manager.
In 1994 the business was sold to Jules Hoffman of Integrity Motors in Florida.
