Duart ?

Good guesses both - but still no

Clues:

I have appeared in Harry Potter, although you wouldn't know it.

I was also location footage for some background shots in 'Local Hero'.

The fish farm at the mouth of the river was (probably) the very first to be so sited in Scotland and is almost certainly the oldest salmon farm in Scotland.

Sheil

« **Reply #285 on:** 17/02/2011 at 21:06 »

Some loch beginning with s near Fort Willie?

« **Reply #286 on:** 17/02/2011 at 21:19 »

No and no :z19

Additional clues.

New Bridge, Frying Pan, the Dubh Lochan, Falls and Monument are all pools on the small river that flows from the loch to the sea.
The loch is dammed at the western (seaward) end.

This loch is south of Loch Maree but North of Loch Etive (I simply can't make this too easy

).

Loch Creran ?

Jim

« **Reply #297 on:** 17/02/2011 at 22:00 »

Loch Eilt?

« **Reply #298 on:** 17/02/2011 at 22:00 »

Good try Jim, but (as a couple of others have guessed) Loch Creran is a sea loch and it's a freshwater loch I'm after.
The River Creran has a loch on it..... but it's something like Baile Chailen or something else equally unpronounceable in Gaelic. I intend to fish it.... one day.

I actually had the first week of my honeymoon at Invercreran - lovely place
