Happy New Year!
Our #HeritagePath of the month is Hexpethgate. This old crossing of the Border is mentioned in a state paper of 1543 (Henry VIII Domestic Series XVIII) as one of seventeen crossings of the Cheviots.

This week’s #FingerpostFriday is a sign pointing towards Lecht Mine via Scalan Seminary and sits along a #HeritagePath called the Ladder Road. Read about the Heritage Path here: scotways.com/heritage-pat...
A cobbled stone bridge arches over a river. A large shrub/tree appears to be growing alongside the centre of the bridge next to the riverbank Powerlines and rolling hills can be seen in the distance.
Our #HeritagePath of the Month is the Corrieyairack Pass, from Laggan in Badenoch to Fort Augustus on Loch Ness.

Three green signs on a post in a forest. The top one reads 'Public footpath to Spittal of Glenshee' and has an arrow pointing right. The second one is very faded. The bottom one gives a brief summary of the route's history.
For #FingerpostFriday, here's our sign at Enochdhu in Strathardle, Perthshire. It points along the Old Road to Glenshee which is #HeritagePath of the month, and volunteers Rod and Mel replaced the interpretation sign last year.
