The Other Wonky Ladder + Foot and Hand Holes
I’m guessing that the wonky ladder came later. The foot and hand holes next to the ladder were probably there before the ladder was installed. Must have been hard work chiselling out the holes. I believe the blocks are made of granite…

The Roman Well
We often walk along the beach from Banff to Whitehills (good place to buy fresh fish) and, on the way, we pass the old Roman Well (and I thought the Roman’s didn’t get this far north). It has been there since Roman times (AD 43 to AD 47) and so it was built around 2,000 years ago. They build things to last in Scotland!!! More about this small but nonetheless interesting building here.
I walked to Whitehills and back today and realised it is a 6 mile round-trip. Oh so very healthy!
