Arbirlot Walks – Fields, Waterfalls and Woodland

A short walk through Arbirlot, just outside Arbroath, takes you from open fields into shaded woodland and down to the small waterfall under the old stone bridge. It’s a quiet spot, ideal for a wander with the dog or simply enjoying the scenery. The mix of farmland, riverside paths and that hidden cascade makes it a favourite place for locals to explore.

The waterfall itself, tucked beneath the bridge, is the highlight. Whether standing above it or cooling off below, it’s a reminder of how much variety you can find within a short distance of town.

Exploring places like Arbirlot shows just how much variety is on offer in this part of Scotland. From open coastlines to tucked-away woodland, I’m always drawn to the mix of landscapes nearby. You can see more of my work across Places and People.

Loughrigg fell

Good morning,

Here are some images taken from an evening camp up Loughrigg Fell.

Loughrigg Fell is a hill in the central part of the English Lake District. It stands (Elevation 335m) on the end of the long ridge coming down from High Raise over Silver How towards Ambleside, and is separated from its neighbours by the depression of Red Bank.

Have you ever solo camped? I would love to see your photo.

A quick post on why you should be picking up that hobby you have been putting off.

Having a hobby is a great way to unwind from the stresses of the workplace. Research shows that people with hobbies are less likely to suffer from stress and depression. Activities that get you out can make you feel happier and more relaxed. For me my hobby is wild camping. I enjoy the planning, problem solving, the aloneness, the waiting / hoping that the weather will cooperate. Helps me to think and hit the reset button on the stresses of the workplace.

Pick up that hobby you have been putting off.

Your mental health is fragile and needs attention as much as your body.

If you are suffering with mental health, there is help out there.

Talk to someone you trust. Talk to your GP. Contact a professional at one of the many charities out there, www.mind.org,
