Missing Glendessary walker found safe and well

The 73-year-old hillwalker who has been missing in the Glendessary area since Sunday has been found safe and well this afternoon (Weds 2 May). A large scale air and ground search had taken place for the last 2 days and Police had appealed for other walkers to look out for Neill McCawley from Worcester.

Mr McCawley has told his rescuers that he underestimated the difficulty of the walk and the route, which resulted in him having to camp for longer than he had originally anticipated.
