Dont Throw Rocks

Ellenabeich is a small village on the isle of Seil – an island on the east side of the Firth of Lorn, It is a former slate-mining village and is where parts of Ring of Bright Water were filmed. Seil is one of the Slate Islands. It is also the departure point for the small Passenger ferry to nearby Easdale which is another of the Slate Islands, The Quarry referred to on the stone is the flooded slate quarry behind the wall.

Shot in 16.9 so a large view may be better, HWW !

Thank you, George
Picking the correct stones appears to be a major part of the builders' art.

Very nice, this natural stone dry stone wall. Something similar can often be seen in the Italian and Austrian Alps and at Lanzarote, to secure vineyards...
