Noticed a few days ago that the building on the Bynack Burn / Geldie Burn junction is being renovated.

Does anyone know what the plan is for it? 

Even though it had no windows and doors it was a very handy emergency shelter when passing. Hope it remains usable to all if needed. Thanks

Thanks so much! I never knew who owned/managed it! That's great news.

Mystery solved

All MBA bothies are closed at the moment due to Covid so you shouldn't be going in them at all

Where, anywhere in this thread, did the OP state he was going into any bothy?

Actually, if you read the OP he does actually say he went inside as 'an emergency shelter'.

Passed it few weeks ago. It looks like it’s going to be a luxurious one, with a toilet. 
 

So close to Linn of Dee on a good track, too.

So it's not a bothy.....point well made.👍

So it might just be feasible in the future to stay there, but not certain?

If bothers open again, then I assume so.

It's currently all boarded up until such time as Covid-19 restrictions permit renovation to take place - hopefully next year!    Once work is complete, then, yes, it'll be open for anyone to use.
