HES's Historic Scotland magazine has an article on a visit by HES to the slate quarries on Belnahua where they were doing an underwater survey as part of the scheduling of the quarries.

That looks a bleak place to work. I should imagine quite "interesting" on a stormy night.

Great place to visit, went there in 1997. Just watch our for the gulls that don't welcome visitors!
