Found in damp areas, this attractive plant (Lychnis flos-cuculi) is usually in flower during July.

Avoch WW1
Avoch WW1
The photos in this album are from the Ross-shire Journal during the 1914-1918 War. Newspaper copies had been deposited with Dingwall Museum but over the years had become rather fragile and were in danger of disintegrating and so it was felt that this valuable record should not be lost.
