Roadside parking on good tarmac'd road leading to business park / industrial area (NB 4199 3099). About 150m of awkward deep heather to small hill giving extensive views to Stornoway etc. 1" Bolt in concrete block few metres off the hill top, exposed in the heather, rendering my spade redundant on this occasion. Block is loose in the ground, tilts back and forth when standing on it.

Even with the help of Mrs Moo Cow's photos, I couldn't find it under the deep heather.

Found on a run from Lewis Castle. The easiest aproach would be to follow the road signed Arnish Industrial Estate until you reach the highest point on the seaward side (plenty of parking potential along the road). Climb across the ditch and dodge various boggy bits to reach the top, Had to clear the heather off to find the block which is actually quite loose but has a nice stud in it. Good views across the Stornoway harbour & beyond the nearby lighthouse.
