Rural Stirling residents were left facing difficulty getting to and from their properties for four days after last week’s cold snap and snowfall.
Locals and businesses in Inversnaid and Stronachlachar say they were cut off after treacherous road conditions meant that there was no way in or out between Friday and Monday.
Stirling saw its first snowfall of the winter on Friday. That led to the B829 – the route between Aberfoyle to both communities – becoming covered with snow under which ice had formed.
