Shakehole, Glenegedale Moor, Islay Shake or sink holes are formed when acidic peat water erodes the limestone beneath the peat and the land 'sinks' causing depressions to form in the landscape. This area on Islay is part of a limestone belt and there are therefore quite a few of these shake holes, which brighten up an otherwise quite featureless landscape.

Meall Mheadhoin (Middle Mound), Glenegedale Moor, Islay The terrain was incredibly dry as Islay has had a paucity of rain this year - not good for the land, but good for us walking! The burn, Uisge Càm Chanaidh, was barely visible.
