This is Banff coast line the square in from of the tiger is a WW2 anti air craft gun bunker !

This is Buckie the viaduct is one of 3 built over Buckie town because the local Laird didn't want the train to cross his land so they had to go around and over the town .

Wow, lovely pictures
We have a Banff over here out in the Rocky mountains, but it certainly doesn't have the old world history like you do.

Here on the eastern coast we also have the remains of gun emplacements from WWII and also from the days of sail.

On the hills looking over the mouth of the San Francisco Bay (both sides of the Golden Gate Bridge) there are many old gun emplacements. Some date back to Civil War times, but most are from the early 1900's, before WW1. There is an old fort at the San Francisco foot of the Golden Gate bridge from the Civil War, called Fort Point. It now rents out space to shops and small businesses.

Very nice pictures. I'm hoping we have a nice weekend down here, so I can get out on the Thunderbird before winter really sets in.

I love that little village in these photos, I have always wanted to visit places like that with so much history.

I need to get to your neck of the woods to do a little riding. Maybe I could Keys and MOT to meet there too.
