A Thurso man was out with his two dogs on Murkle beach when he found, what appears to be, a very old crucifix lying on the shoreline.
Mike Ross was doing a spot of beach cleaning on Wednesday as his Jack Russell dogs Buffy and Sirius played about, when he came across the small metal cross.
"I found it on low tide at West Murkle. It was just lying on top of the sand," said Mike.
