The road leading west from Cromarty, along the spine of the Black Isle.

Laid out in the mid 19th Century, and maintained by the "County" Road squads, it has always been known – and I hope always will be known – as the County Road.

Very unusually for a road in the Highlands and Islands it runs dead straight for 5 miles (8Km) or so, allowing this vanishing point shot, helped by the wintry conditions.
