A view back to Port Ellen around Loch Leodamais from a walk across the Ard to the Swan’s Pool in June 2025. Port Ellen marina and the pier with the grain silo in the centre. The maltings just visible in the distance towards the right.

Somehow managed to capture them all empty, so you can take your pick where you’d like to sit. A variety of benches outside of Laphroaig distillery on a sunny June afternoon. Right under the famous warehouse no.1. At a table for a lunch in the sun. Or at the shore of Loch Laphroaig for a view out to sea.
