Two rescued from water at Devil’s Pulpit

A mountain rescue was triggered after a man and woman got stuck in water down a gorge.

The pair got into difficulty at the Devil’s Pulpit, in Finnich Glen near Killearn, on Tuesday.

They were about 8ft down the drop and could not get out.

Emergency crews were alerted at 8:26pm, with firefighters and the Lowlands Rescue team called to the scene.

According to local lore, the gorge was a meeting place for ancient Druids. It is also where Satan is said to have preached to the monks below.
