STRATHPEFFER.
This village, about five miles from Dingwall, has during late years been much resorted to as an inland watering-place or spa, the waters having the same sulphuretted character as at Harrogate, but being even more powerful, and found to be of remarkable efficacy in cases of gout and rheumatism. There are also chalybeate springs. In 1881 assembly rooms were added to the older pump room of 1829. About ten miles distant, in the background of our view, is Ben Wyvis, 3,429 feet in height, the ascent of which is a favourite excursion. This mountain is held from the Crown by the tenure of a snow-ball, to be produced from it on some (any) day in every year. A great part of Strathpeffer now belongs to a company, which has purchased the property from the Earl of Cromartie.
