Huts gone….

As I feared, the old huts beside the A9 at Evanton have gone – I managed a return trip, but this time pulled off the A9 to have a look at the Highland Deephaven Industrial estate.

There’s one or two buildings left, mostly old hangars, and former married quarters, I’ll post photos later when I get time.

Kind of sad that another little bit of history has gone without a comment.

On a more positive note, I did stop at the former RAF Alness, also now an industrial estate / business campus. With the road layout of the area, you really did get a feel for the fact that this once was a base. I saw a gate which seemed to have a concrete standing / slipway, and I took a couple of photos, also took photos of the memorial to the WW2 operations on that site. Again, I’ll post them when I find time.

I didn’t travel through the area between Dalmore Distillery and Alness Business park, but I know now that was where a lot of the base was.

Any other information anybody wants to share would be great!

Kind Regards,

Scotty
