Crofter, Callum MacLeod, 63, shoulders his shovel after another day's work on the road .

. his OWN road, 29th April 1973. It weaves two and a half miles through two lines of hills, over two peat bogs and skirts the edge of a 250 foot cliff. Callum has tackled this enormous task with just a shovel, a barrow and a pick. The story of Callum's road started in 1925 when he began his campaign to get Inverness county council to build a road to the village of Arnis on Raasay. The council refused, and so he went it alone.
