    Hiking

    Lovers' Loan, a walled-in pathway between the Grange- and Sciennes area, is a centuries-old trysting place which was preserved in a late 19th-century redevelopment.
    A nice collection of photos of this path and of the carved dragon at the bottom end (at the intersection with Grange Loan) can be found on flickr.com/photos/allybeag/albums/72177720305281503/with/52629482106.
