Clubhouse
The South Uist Clay Pigeon Club shoots on Sunday afternoons - we heard them from the summit of Rueval on Easter Day.
Behind the clubhouse and to the right you can see the startling architecture of the RC Church at Garrymonie:
Our Lady of Sorrows (Eaglais Màthair nan Dòrainn) (RC), Richard McCarron, 1964-5 Modernist Catholic church reflecting the 1960s liturgical revival, an economic version in rendered brick of works by Gillespie Kidd & Coia. Topped by a neon cross, it rises incongruously from the treeless landscape, a wedge-shaped bookend spectacularly discordant in its setting. Sacred Heart mosaic by David Harding.
