MYSTERY PHOTO: Classic building sports colorful shields

Look at the colorful shields on this classic building.  It’s no doubt a one-of-its-kind. Can you determine where this Mystery Photo was taken? Try your luck, and send your thoughts to ebrack2@gmail.com, including your hometown.

Jay Altman of Columbia, S.C. identified the previous mystery, that of Glas-Allt Shiel, located on Loch Muick, in Aberdeenshire, Scotland. Built as a hunting lodge originally for Queen Victoria and completed in 1868, it lies at the western end of the north shore of the loch. The queen had previously used the lodge further north in the glen at Allt-na-giubhsaich ,but after the death of Prince Albert, could no longer bear to stay there, with its associations. The cottage at Glas-allt Shiel was extended and became her new retreat. It is also known as the Widow’s House or the Widow’s Hut.”

Claire Danielson of Black Mountain, N.C. took the photo recently after “escaping” to Scotland when Hurricane Helene left her without power, water and food. (She is back in Black Mountain now, but was still without potable water when she returned.)

Also recognizing it were George Graf, Palmyra, Va.; Lou Camerio, Lilburn; and Alan Peel of San Antonio, Tex.
