Looks like he is a bit of a hoarder of junk. She's probably ill with it but gave up years ago.

Ha ha.
Thats exactly what I did last night mate.
Could'nt find it for toffee though as the street view is very limited.
Just seems to be static outside the local school. Could'nt seem to move forwards or backwards and have a mooch about.
Nevermind. I'm sure its still there probably full of his powertools and several chickens.

Hi Garry,
Street view is a bit flakey but it is still there. About halfway between North Roe and Isbister on the A970. (60 35'38.62N 1 19'38.28W is the camera location.)
Regards
John

Found it John. Cheers for the location.
Seems to be in situ next to the farm house.
Tried to post a snap of the location but google maps is a bit of a pain and keeps reducing the size.
Anyway glad its still there. God only knows what the owner is using it for. My guess is a potato shed.
