Old Photograph of The Cobbler in Scotland. The Cobbler, or Ben Arthur to use the correct name is just short of a Munro but is still one of Scotland's most spectacular mountains due to the unusual skyline and fabulous views. The Cobbler is one of a group of mountains known as The Arrochar Alps and was the happy hunting ground of many of Scotland's early climbers and climbing clubs.
