Fechlin River

by Roger (Grisly)
Wade Bridge over the River Fechlin at Whitebridge, this river flows into the River Foyers and on into Loch Ness,
The bridge was constructed in 1732 by General Wade as a part of a military road in an attempt to suppress further Jacobite risings

Anyone identify the flowers growing on the bridge please, (see Pips) Close up Pip by Ecobird.
Large if you please

Thank you Jeff, I have added a pip that enlarges a section of the bridge to see if that will help.
