Telecoms aerial and building below Ceanna MÃ²r

The B8043 crosses a low col almost at the foot of the south ridge of Beinn na Cille; placing the mast there presumably allows it to receive and transmit to and from the small settlements at both Kingairloch and Camasnacroise.

The south ridge of Beinn na Cille rises steeply from the B8043 as a largely grassy feature but with some rock exposures; the lochan seen here lies at around 450m.
