Fun with Architecture - The Gelder Shiel

A very simple building, set in the Gelder valley near Ballater. A mountain bothy for hikers, run by the Mountain Bothies Association. It's very basic inside, with just the bare essentials for an overnight stay.

This picture was taken on Thursday of last week with this week's theme in mind.

A strong shelter - are there any windows on the other side!

But oh what a welcome sight if you are caught out in the weather! Nice image with it tucked away in the shelter of the trees there.

Looks a lovely setting

[Peter Day]

looks a nice spot, but maybe in summer.

[Richard Sayer]

A rude dwelling yes... but I guess a luxury mansion for those in need.

[Tunia McClure]

It looks very solid and just enough for a weary traveler.

[Pat Knowles]

So much relief as the weary cold traveler spies this building in the distance. Shut the doors out of the wind...bliss! A sturdy welcome temporary home.

A simple building to provide safety and shelter.

@dide No windows! Just 8 rudimentary bunk beds and a wood burning stove.
