Seen on trip to Burleywhag bothy.

Was it a water redurection to the nearby (now derelict) farmhouse ? An early form of hydropower generation?

It's Bender from Futurama.

Looks like he could do with a hand.

Unlikely. It didn't swear at me.

In reply to Flinticus:

Judging by the gauge of metal, and the number and size of rivets, I'd say its a boiler for some steam powered device.

like the captain says

looks like a pressure vessel, i can't think of any other reason for all the rivets

Passed it many times (used to be MO) always thought it was a repurposed bit of agricultural engineering

A great wee bothy. Loved the sleeping cubicle. 

Went a bit astray on the newish track leading down to the Capel Burn...
