Looking for pictures of Kintyre/Knapdale area

Postby Younghappy » Thu Feb 15, 2007 11:43 pm

This is my first post.

I was searching for pictures of Dunaverty Bay on the internet and I came across this forum and registered.
I go to a school called "Dalriada" in Ballymoney, Northern Ireland and have recently become quite interested in the history of the Kindom of Dal Riada. The Kingdom of Dal Riada spread across the sea from Co Antrim and made it's way up Kintyre, Knapdale and established it's capitol at Dunadd in the Kilmarten Valley near.

I am looking for pictures of certain places:
Loch nan Torran-It is a loch in the middle of Knapdale
Dunadd -A hillfort in Kilmarten valley along the River Add
Iona Island-A small Island beside Isle of Mull
Burghead-A headland near Elgin&Inverness



The reason for this is beacuse I'm making a series of Levels/missions in a computer game I have.

I have already made Dunaverty Castle not 100% true to real life terrain and it would've looked alot different in 500-600AD

I would appreciate if you had any photos of the above places

Well thanks anyway. I suppose a few pictures of Dunaverty would be cool too, though there is another Dunaverty thread.

It's well worth looking at the Geograph website: http://www.geograph.co.uk

There are a huge number of photos of the whole UK, including some of Dunadd and Iona.
