The ornate and extravagant Kinloch Castle on the Isle of Rum. Built between 1897 and 1900, it had electricity, central heating, hi-tech plumbing and an internal telephone system. A slice of Belgravia, and perhaps Bohemia, in Scotland. More pics and info: https://www.undiscoveredscotland.co.uk/rum/kinlochcastle/index.html

How giant earthworms have transformed the Isle of Rum’s landscape https://theconversation.com/how-giant-earthworms-have-transformed-the-isle-of-rums-landscape-231638

"Renowned for a thriving and intricately studied population of around 900 #RedDeer, the #IsleOfRum, part of #Scotland’s Inner #Hebrides, is often considered an outdoor laboratory for scientific research. But the #earthworms on Rum are equally remarkable. These #invertebrates act as #EcosystemEngineers, actively shaping the landscape, often after humans have left their mark on this remote island."
