This is the tarmac road dropping down into the houses behind Cairnbaan Camp (FC workshop) in Knapdale, close to Dunardry basin on the Crinan Canal. Looking south east towards Kilmichael Forest. Don't know the year but comparing the trees on the far bank with what is there now would help to age the shot.

Picture 234 looks like Cairnbaan village and canal in West Argyll.

This is taken from a road we knew as the high road which leads up to Knapdale Forest. If you look middle of picture you can see modern roof tops, these houses were built in the 70s. I lived in the village accross from the shop.
