About Keills

There are two adjacent jetties at Keills; one, the old droving jetty, is perhaps one of Telford's best achievements. This jetty, maintained by the local Council, is still in excellent condition. Cattle were taken from Lagg in Jura, to Keills on the mainland.

The other jetty, to the immediate north, is in a poor state of repair, as the final image in 'More Photos' shows.

The main photo above shows both jetties, with the sloping droving jetty in the foreground.
