A roadtrip up Glen Prosen with Bro today.

First was an unscheduled stop at Prosen bridge as the burns that feed Prosen water had succumbed to the melting snow and let loose the potent white horses that poured down the Glen.

An awesome sight.

Never seen the water so high.

At Scott's monument. There used to be a well here that got smashed by a car in 1979. A cairn replaced it in 1981 and this Bruce Walker sculpture now stands at the spot.

The only monument of the Terra Nova expedition to show Scott & Wilson together.

The route to the pole.

Capt. Robert Falcon Scott.

The original plaque fron the 1919 well.

A sunny moment. The weather was the usual dreich affair with a few sunny patches.

Onto Prosen Parish church. This was built in 1802 to replace the original church from 1602.

The west wall.

Unusual cross made from slates.

We managed to sneak inside. A bit like something from 'Little house on the prairie

The Holy Grail?

No expense spared...a lovely Roland upright electric piano!

The water was almost kissing the underside of the bridge.

The graveyard.

Old celtic cross.

Bro reflects on his coffee.

Another sunny moment.

Todays luggage.

Bro with his cupflask.

Next, after a short hike across fields and a ridge, we came upon the ruined chapel of Balnaboth.

But disaster, as we can't get in!

It's a Boo! from Bro.

What lies behind the door?.

Much LoLage as Bro clambers up the wall and spies a glimpse of 2 crosses, a grave and some snow!

Och well!. We found 2 out of the 4 things we'd hoped to find, you can't win them all. Another great afternoon out, it's better than sitting indoors!!
