In all about 54 acres Edinburgh office 22 Young Street Edinburgh EH2 4JB t 0131 344 0880 [email protected] SITUATION Torridon House Estate is situated amongst some of the most beautiful and dramatic scenery in Northern Europe. It lies on the northern shores of Upper Loch Torridon, a sea loch, and beneath the spectacular mountain ridges of Beinn Alligin (3,232ft) and Lianthach (3,456ft). The southerly views across the sea loch are truly magnificent, topped off with the 2,957ft peak of Beinn Damph. The nearest major town/city is Inverness, which lies about 47 miles to the east and which provides a full range of shops, services and amenities as well as an international airport and a mainline rail station. Torridon village is at the head of the loch about 1.5miles along the shore line and comprises a small crofting community at the end of one of the most beautiful west Highland passes from where there are breathtaking views over the loch to the Applecross Hills. The village provides a general store and there is an excellent restaurant and bar across the loch at the Torridon Hotel. Shieldaig and Kinlochewe are both very well known villages and are only about 20 minutes drive from where access to the rest of Wester Ross and its spectacular scenery is readily gained. HISTORY Torridon House is on land which once formed part of the Beinn Damph Estate which ran from Applecross in the south to nearly Gairloch in the north. In the later part of the nineteenth century the entire estate was purchased from the then owner, the Duke of Leeds, by the 4th Earl of Lovelace who set about investing in the estate creating a number of fine houses, including Beinn Damph House (now the Torridon Hotel). The 5th Earl then added Torridon Estate to the property and the family moved from Beinn Damph House in the 1960s as the new public road was thought to be too close and they settled in Torridon House. The house is now lived in by the 5th Earl and his wife. TORRIDON HOUSE Torridon Estate was bought in the 1950s by the 4th Earl of Lovelace from lands belonging to the Lord of the Isles and which included one of the best deer forests in the west Highlands. The house holds a prominent position on the north shore of Upper Loch Torridon. The house was built in around 1876 using the famous Torridon red sandstone and was designed for family living as well as to support sporting parties during the shooting and fishing seasons. The house has been remodelled over the years, but its layout remains central around the magnificent reception rooms. All three lead from the impressive pine panelled reception hall, including a lovely library with fully fitted bookshelves, a beautiful drawing room with decorative ceiling, plaster work and cornice, the most elegant fire place and spectacular views across the gardens. The dining room is situated on the east side of the house, but is well positioned with a pantry and kitchen nearby. There is a good sized study and gun room as well as a billiard room. A covered courtyard at the back has a number of useful rooms off including the laundry, work shop, larders and staff room. An extensive basement provides masses of storage, has a boiler room, wine cellar and a fully fitted bar. The bedroom accommodation is on the first and second floors. The master suite has bedroom, sitting room, dressing room and bathroom and there are 17 further bedrooms and 5 bathrooms. There is also a nursery and playroom on the top floor. GARDEN AND GROUNDS The immediate gardens around the house are very special indeed. Set out when the house was built it is now highlighted by magnificent native trees, which have framed a large front lawn sloping gently down towards the River Corrie. There are deep herbaceous borders and a small rock garden. The river is perhaps one of the prettiest parts of the The house also has private water and drainage and it is DIRECTIONS property, with a stunning waterfall a short walk from heated by an oil fired boiler and convector heaters.

Box 3006, N-7001 Trondheim, Norway SYNOPSIS Primary (compactional) magnetic fabrics and multicomponent rem- anences are recognized in the Stoer and Torridon Groups. Low tempera- ture (LT) blocking remanences are randomized around 400-600°C and relate to a post-Torridonian magnetic overprint, possibly of early Mesozoic age. In the Stoer Group (and some Stoer boulders in the basal Torridon Group) LT remanences are partly or fully carried by magnetite (titanomagnetite). High temperature (HT) remanences are characterized by discrete unblocking above 600°C, having a specular haematite remanence carrier. Results of a conglomerate test of some Stoer boulders provides a positive stability test for HT remanences in the Torridon Group, and a convergence of evidence suggests that remanence acquisi- tion of both the Stoer and Torridon Groups was facilitated by both detrital and early diagenetic processes.

  • WESTER ROSS Wester Ross Ross Wester 212 © Lonelyplanet Walk Tooneofscotland’Sfinestcorries, Coire Mhicfhearchair
    © Lonely Planet 212 Wester Ross Wester Ross is heaven for hillwalkers: a remote and starkly beautiful part of the High- lands with lonely glens and lochs, an intricate coastline of rocky headlands and white-sand beaches, and some of the finest mountains in Scotland. If you are lucky with the weather, the clear air will provide rich colours and great views from the ridges and summits. In poor conditions the remoteness of the area makes walking a much more serious proposition. Whatever the weather, the walking can be difficult, so this is no place to begin learning mountain techniques. But if you are fit and well equipped, Wester Ross will be immensely rewarding – and addictive. The walks described here offer a tantalising taste of the area’s delights and challenges. An Teallach’s pinnacle-encrusted ridge is one of Scotland’s finest ridge walks, spiced with some scrambling. Proving that there’s much more to walking in Scotland than merely jumping out of the car (or bus) and charging up the nearest mountain, Beinn Dearg Mhór, in the heart of the Great Wilderness, makes an ideal weekend outing. This Great Wilderness – great by Scottish standards at least – is big enough to guarantee peace, even solitude, during a superb two-day traverse through glens cradling beautiful lochs. Slioch, a magnificent peak overlooking Loch Maree, offers a comparatively straightforward, immensely scenic ascent. In the renowned Torridon area, Beinn Alligin provides an exciting introduction to its consider- WESTER ROSS able challenges, epitomised in the awesome traverse of Liathach, a match for An Teallach in every way.

  • Beinn Eighe and Liathach for Grandeur: a Visit to Its Lochan Is a Must
    H of Wester Ross 1 Gairloch District: from Little Loch Broom to Loch Torridon 1 The central part of Wester Ross, from Little Loch Broom to Loch Torridon, is privileged to have an unmatched collection of mountains – or rather hills, as they are traditionally known in Scotland. The main service centre of this area is Gairloch, from which they can all be reached. The aim of this booklet is to introduce these hills to both active and armchair hill- walkers. It is not a complete guide; for that you need something like the SMC North West Highlands guide, plus a good map. But it contains hints from local knowledge, relevant geological information, and a lot of pictures. Fine weather is assumed (yes, there are fine days here!): if possible, don’t climb these hills without it, unless you enjoy the mere exercise or the navigational challenge, or you are simply bagging summits (p20)! And remember that in snowy winter conditions hill-walking is transformed into a different and more technical sport – mountaineering. Our hills are not high by continental standards, but while the greater ranges are still rising or being worn down (which may take only 50 million years), ours have been carved by ice out of truly ancient rocks: gneiss (p11), amphibolite (p19), sandstone (p23), and quartzite (p27), each with its own distinct character as you walk on it. This geology, everywhere visible, explains why the landscape here is so much rockier, rougher and more varied than the land further east, which was overrun by the softer rock of the mountain-building Moine Thrust (p35).

Un- fortunately there is neither a Carnegie nor a Strathcona to take an interest in Gaelic literature. 7th DECEMBER, 1905. On this evening the following paper from the pen of the Rev. C. M. Robertson, Strontian, was read: FOLK-LORE FROM THE WEST OF ROSS-SHIRE. The following examples of the folk-lore of the West of the County of Ross and Cromarty have been collected during the years 1900 to 1904. Many, perhaps most, of them can lay little claim to novelty, but they supply evidence of the inclu- sion of this district in their area of distribution. They have been gathered almost wholly in Lochcarron, Kenlochewe, and, more especially, Torridon and Little Lochbroom. The two latter are the less and less known places among " frequented parts of the district. In Gairloch : Its Records, Traditions, Inhabitants, and Natural History," by Mr J. H. Dixon, a book whose high merits are well known, the folk-lore of that parish is well represented, and much of what comes under one or other of the sub-divisions of Folk- lore has found a place in various volumes of our Society's Transactions. Most of what is contained in the follow- ing pages belongs to the special division of Superstition. Of folk-lore matter noted, topographical sayings, communal nicknames and proverbs are not given. The last named, for the most part, are already known. Rhymes and sayings about places are plentiful. One that is said to have been uttered by Kenneth Odhar on first seeing the mountains named, is Beinn Eighe 's Beinn an Eoin, Beinn mhor a' Chearcaill duibh ; Liathach 's a mac air a muin, 'S mairg air an tuiteadh an sac Ann am bac moine.
