Images lie these make me stop and carefully consider, "what was it for?" In this case the wall, it has obviously been there a long time, so was it once pastural land the wall was there to keep the animals in, or arable land and it was there to keep the animals out? Obviously a boundary of importance, but like so many things of importance time has reclaimed it.

Very thought provoking, well done

No doubt the Scots think Morder is somewhere South of the border. "
No it's what happens in Glasgow when someone kills another person.....

Beautiful! I'd prefer to stay in the woods than continue on to Mordor, though.

The shot conjures up all sorts of imagined scenarios as to its creation and existence. Again making me regret the way I visited Scotland.
