On the outskirts of Moffat, heading to the Moffat Well. |
Lisa standing in the roadway on the way up to Moffat Well. |
The road ahead, with the neatly built stone walls disappearing in the distance. |

Moss growing on the stones of a dry stone wall. |
Looking up towards Gallows Hill above Moffat. |
A stone wall with electric protection. |

A view of the terrain outside Moffat, still on the way to Moffat Well. |
One of the farms we walked through on our travels. Gallows Hill in the background. |
Sheep doing what sheep mainly do. |

Lisa under a rhododendron tree at the Moffat Well. |
Moffat Well. This was the source of the town's mineral waters in times past. It was about 2 miles from Moffat town. |
Another view of the spectacular rhododendrons at the Moffat Well. |

Back onto a paved road for a while as we went toward Gallows Hill from Moffat Well. |

Lisa and some happy bovines. |
Roger in front of a vista of stone walls. |
In the woods up on Gallows Hill. Lisa is trying to find out what bird was making the scratching sounds we kept hearing. |

In the woods on Gallows Hill. The pathway was quite close to the edge of the woods, and the valley in the distance is the Beechgrove. |
Looking down Beechgrove toward Moffat town which is in the distance at the left of the picture. |
Looking across Beechgrove again - the cloud of dust was a farmer spreading lime or some other fertiliser on his pasture. |
