This is where the cattle and sheep will be going for winter grazing. It is a big space for them with plenty of choices for them to pick at along with there hay and mineral blocks to keep them going through winter. It is a lovely quiet space and got to be the best place down at the croft. The skeabost river runs next to it and also across the river is where the held the skeabost gravel sprint for the Skye rally club here is a link to the Skye rally club.

The skeabost river is a place where you can catch some of the best salmon on the isle of ske, Lovley when you can see them jumping up the waterfalls, you can see them do this from about may to mid september some days you can be there for hours and only see one or two sometimes be there for five minutes and see up to about thirty. Some pictures below that i took while me and my dad did some fencing.
This top picture is right at the top of the hill.
First river gate.
All this dead bracken will be getting cut away soon as it can be possioness to the cows and sheep if they eat to much of it.
