Easy track from West Kirkcarswell. Cattle in profusion, many recumbent in the heatColin Crawford04/06/2022
Roadside verge parking (NX 7529 4928). Muddy track leads up to a muddy cattle ring feed station near the HP. Easy, but not a pleasant walk especially given the mist and drizzle.jonglew28/01/2021
