Personally, I only got into the habit of mispelling Billy's surname for the sake of the inevitable resction from the big man.

I think you will have to give out the answer, don't think weeman has been walking about there
I'm guessing it's an Island with the North and South but no idea which one

I thought you would have seen the raised statue in the background from that angle

I probably should know but don't. The viaduct is a big clue?

Stuck with this one I assume if you show more of the church it would be a dead giveaway
I see what you did there.
Don't know either where it is, but if it's on the N.C. 500 I'd guess Lochcarron

Yes that's it. Never knew it existed until a couple of weeks ago.The plaque on the bridge also spells his name as Caulfeild. Here's a bit of info;
LITTLE GARVE BRIDGE
The bridge at Little Garve was constructed by Major Caulfeild in the 1762 as part of the governments military roads which were built in the wake of the Jacobite Rebellion in 1745/6. This particular route ran from Contin north west to Poolewe, and while the route to the north of the bridge is easily traced, that to the south is a little more difficult, although the forest road from Strath Garve to Contin may be on the same alignment.
The bridge has never been part of a classified road, with the route followed by the A835 already having been built prior to classification in 1922. However, the road over the bridge was in use until 1987 when it was finally decided that bridge was in too poor condition for continued use. However, it took another 20 years before restoration work took place, following a partial (minor) collapse a couple of years before.

Built by the successor to General Wade apparently, with (relatively recent) roads in Sneck named after him.
It would appear that the council have spelt his name wrong ??
