    Arrow mysterious tunnel, Dunkeld, April 2012

    I cycled over to Dunkeld for a few nights to look after someones dogs, I did many things there, went up Birnam hill, visited the cathedral and explored some nice wee hermits caves, but most interestingly, when cycling back I noticed something on the roadside...

    The tunnel goes on for a few hundred meters, round a corner and then stops, I have no idea what it is but I'll PM anyone that wants a location. I thought it might'v been a mine after some research I found out that there WERE mines in dunkeld but on the wrong hill.

    Interesting, Wonder what it was!

    Air vent from a mine?
    The only thing to do with good advice is pass it on. It is never any use to oneself.

    Looks well built. Get the shovel and start digging!
