I might need to get 'Next Autumn Perhaps' inscribed in latin on a plaque to hang above my door 😆

been meaning to get to moor crichel for maybe 5 autumns in a row now & even though its only ~45 mins away, still never ticked it off

If you are lucky enough to get a blue skies day in ~ ballpark last 10 days of Oct - first 10 days of November,
...Bliss 😊

[ ...that is, once you've taken out a mortgage to pay entry ]

one of the absolute finest 😊
& great shot too!

Still annoyed about this,
passed through Melrose on a beautiful august day a couple of years back, caught the abbey & museum & trimontium site
...didn't have time to also climb Eildon Hill

and i look back now like... when am I possibly going to find a day as beautiful as that to see it?!?
fuming 😡😡

A short way further but was losing the light & just had a chance to catch the section at Watling lodge before heading back to Glasgow for the night
anyway - it was a very special couple of days, been nice to finally share it!

Also at rough castle - some recreated lilia: these trap holes which formed part of the multi-approach construction of the Antonine Wall defences

this is Rough Castle, feel like we're getting into #RomanFortThursday territory but this is a spectacular place, even more so in Autumn (click for full image)

sorry i don't have something more substantive

...and from there, with a little walking the line of the Wall was about to get more spectacular again

After a while of walking along a canal (or what i assume is a canal?) the bank of the wall becomes more visible again - just outside Bonnybridge

After a coffee stop in Cumbernauld, the next stretch was quite a lot of walking, with not a lot to see in the landscape - the ditch & bank was just about visible in parts, but the Castlecary fort site is essentially an empty field
