On saturday we went to see the striding arches!!They are located in Cairnshead ,near Moniaive.I did some research and here are the results!
The striding arches are made by Andrew Goldsworthy out of local sandstone.There are three situated at a place called Cairnhead. One appears to be casually striding out of a disused byre whereas the other two are on nearby hills. There are also similar arches in Canada, also made out of sandstone from Scotland.These represent the mass emigration from Scotland to Canada during the time of the Clearances.
