Yes.

There is a similar arch a bit further down the road (from Brechin) at Fettercairn. Would make a lovely photo for the front cover of Arrivee. *lays plans for next year's Snow Roads Audax which passes through boh I think?*
Edzell it is, and Noodley is correct, Snow Roads doesn't go through here. But the Potter for Tea does.

ooh,ooh I knew that & have been thru' both arches on the same day. :)

jogler, yes you probably were, when you were chauffeuring David when he took all the Snow Roads photos last year. But  I realised after I posted this that the Potter for Tea didn't go through the arch at Edzell at all, but the Mearns Meander from 2009 did.  :facepalm:

Noodley: It's not Loch Hope is it? No, I didn't think so.

David: here's a crap fotie of the arch at Fettercairn form the first running of the Snow Roads in 2008:
leaders are : Cyclops, innesh, other dave and fin.
I'm sure you can do a better job next year.  :-[

Jurek's turn?

And me between innesh & otherdave. Innocent days when I lurked off the front  :)

Well I seem to have thoroughly bored everyone  or else I've fucked up the link to the image and only I can see the picture.

The answer is Loch Long from the summit of Beinn Narnain.

Someone else can have a go now

Hmm.  Double-width lock on a narrow canal I've seen before, but not with a guillotine upper gate.  Somewhere on the Stratford canal would be my guess.
