Let's go out of Sneck

[+weeman]

Drove by it last night

[+snorbens_caleyman]

OK, it's Redcastle in the Black Isle.

I've driven along the coast road on Google Maps, and cannot see it.  Nor can I pinpoint that passing place. 

And I reckon that if you were that far away from the road, your feet must have been very wet!

You are right snorbens you can't see it from streetview.  Here it is from the other side of the firth.

[IBM]

Here is another one.

Another one I recognise and pass regularly

If snorbens seen this he will be all round the Black Isle with the wee yellow man

I have had a quick look for schools or former schools on the Black Isle    Not with the wee yellow man, though.  Have seen a couple - Mulbuie and Newhall - which are similar.

Discolouring on the chimney and slates and the direction of the TV aerial would suggest that it's in the quadrant north-west of Mounteagle/Rosemarkie.  But most of the Black Isle is, anyway.  

And you could both be trying to mislead me!

Go on, tell me...

It's the old Killearnan school just northwest of Redcastle

It's used now by the Scouts and Girl Guides(not at the same time) as a sort of hostel

Mantis maybe, Snorbens good luck

[IBM]

It's one I know although only been there once 

[+snorbens_caleyman]

I thought at first that it might be Loch Garry, south-west from Dalnaspidal.  It's not that.

But there can't be many lochs with a slope on them like that 

[+weeman]

South of Inverness, north of Dalnaspidal

Great for waterskiing though 
Loch Ericht?

Weeman will be in bed  further north.

I am tempted to say Loch Ruthven, but I can't see any online photographs that convince me...

That's it. Nice walk along the side of the loch and then up by the river. Get's steeper then, heading up towards the wind farm

[Satan]

Sat & fished off a ledge at the bottom of the steep sloping side many years ago. Loch was full of small arctic char. Interesting drive from whitebridge in a pre vw era Skoda.

Should probably pay a return visit, as it's been a long time & windfarms were just a flight of fancy back then.

[IBM]

A long way out of sneck

[+weeman]

Found it, I've never been there.

[+snorbens_caleyman]

Ditto.

[IBM]

I will leave it till later l think Mantis might have been there
