My Mother In Laws House

A Memory of Backhill of Bush (Bothy).

My mother in law stayed in this house with her mother,father and 3 brothers when it was a Croft..she stayed here from 1935-mid 40’s..she had to walk over 6 miles to school over the hills carrying her block of peat that children had to take to heat the class..her and her father also helped RAF airmen from the hills during the war when planes were downed ..she was 7 yrs old at the time and she knew the hills like the back of her hand and was able to lead the airmen to safety at the Croft where they were offered a meal and a bed in the barn with the animals..she has many many more stories about this bothy and surrounding area..
