A National Nature Reserve and was the venue for the hill race in the first MOTG Series, in which Archie helped a limping Katrina, allowing a kilted Duncan (sponsored by Willie Wallace’s Garage) to romp home. Loch Laggan. The loch boasts the largest freshwater beach in the country and on the southern shore, the major location for the series, the splendid Victorian house of Ardverikie. Queen Victoria spent her first long holiday here in 1847. The House is privately owned but good photographs can be obtained from the north side of Loch Laggan from below one of the lay-by’s.—Can access the beach by foot over the bridge and is about a 15 minute walk. Many scenes from Monarch of the Glen have been filmed at various locations along the south side of Loch Laggan . The beach at the east end of the loch appeared in many scenes including Hector (Richard Briers) going swimming in series one. Pattack Falls. A Dramatic Gorge was the scene of a moonlit canoodling between Archie and Katrina in the first series. Fergal stripped off and dived into the pool in the second series. Many fishing scenes used this gorge in all seven series. Located on A86 accessed via car park. Laggan Often seen as Glenbogle village. The Hamlet by the bridge over the River Spey. The primary school was used for Glenbogle school, the Craft Shop appeared as Wallace's Garage and Funeral Directors, while the local shop became MacKechnie's Stores. The start and end of the hill race in Series One episode two was also filmed next to the village. Around half a mile from Laggan on the road to the Corrieyairack Pass is the ruined cottage which was used as Katrina's cottage in Series One and the folk museum in Series Two. Golly was given this same cottage in Series 4 . Polling Station.

This was used a few times and with Archie and Katrina, they rowed to the de- serted island with the ruined castle.

  • I. the Parallel Roads of Lochaber Have Presented to Geologists a Problem, Which Is Still Unsolved
    (595) XXVII.—On the Parallel Roads of Lochaber. By DAVID MILNE HOME, LL.D, (Plates XLL, XLIL, XLIII.) (Read 15th May 1876.) I. The Parallel Roads of Lochaber have presented to geologists a problem, which is still unsolved. Dr MACCULLOCH, about sixty years ago, when President of the Geological Society of London, first called attention to these peculiar markings on the Lochaber Hills, by an elaborate Memoir afterwards published in that Society's Transactions. He was followed by Sir THOMAS DICK LAUDER, who in the year 1824, read a paper in our own Society, illustrated by excellent sketches. His paper is in our Transactions. The next author who attempted a solution was the present Mr CHARLES DARWIN. He maintained that these Roads were sea-beaches, formed, when this part of Europe was rising from beneath the Ocean. He was followed by Professor AGASSIZ, Dr BUCKLANB, CHARLES BABBAGE, Sir JOHN LUBBOCK, ROBERT CHAMBERS, Professor ROGERS, Sir GEORGE M'KENZIE, Mr JAMIESON of Ellon, Professor NICOL, Mr BRYCE of Glasgow, Mr WATSON, and Mr JOLLY of Inverness. Sir CHARLES LYELL, though he wrote no special memoir, treated the subject pretty fully in his works, giving an opinion in support of the views of AGASSIZ. I took some little part myself in the discussion, having in the year 1847 read a paper in this Society, which was published in our Transactions. During the last five or six years, there has been an entire cessation of both investigation and discussion, in consequence probably of a desire to await the publication of more correct maps of the district, which at the request of the British Association for the Advancement of Science, the Ordnance Survey Department undertook.

Creag Meagaidh is a complex massif, with numerous mountain tops and an extensive high summit plateau edged by a dramatic series of ice-carved corries and gullies. The Reserve extends from the highest of the mountain tops to the shores of Loch Laggan. The plateau is carpeted in moss-heath and is an important breeding ground for dotterel. The corries support unusual artic- alpine plants and the lower slopes have scattered patches of ancient woodland dominated by birch. Located 45 kilometres (km) northeast of Fort William and covering nearly 4,000 hectares (ha), the Reserve is owned and managed by Scottish Natural Heritage (SNH). Creag Meagaidh has been a NNR since 1986 and during the last twenty years SNH has worked to restore natural habitats, particularly woodland, on the Reserve. Like much of the Highlands, the vegetation has been heavily grazed for centuries, so it was decided to reduce the number of grazing animals by removing sheep and culling red deer. The aim was not to eliminate grazing animals altogether, but to keep numbers at a level that allowed the habitats, especially the woodland, to recover.

    Spatially heterogeneous post-Caledonian burial and exhumation across the Scottish Highlands Michelle L. Fame1, James A. Spotila1, Lewis A. Owen2, Jason M. Dortch3, and David L. Shuster4,5 1DEPARTMENT OF GEOSCIENCES, VIRGINIA POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTE AND STATE UNIVERSITY, 4044 DERRING HALL, BLACKSBURG, VIRGINIA 24060, USA 2DEPARTMENT OF GEOLOGY, UNIVERSITY OF CINCINNATI, CINCINNATI, OHIO 45221, USA 3KENTUCKY GEOLOGICAL SURVEY, 228 MINING AND MINERAL RESOURCES BUILDING, UNIVERSITY OF KENTUCKY, LEXINGTON, KENTUCKY 40506, USA 4DEPARTMENT OF EARTH AND PLANETARY SCIENCE, UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA, BERKELEY, CALIFORNIA 94720, USA 5BERKELEY GEOCHRONOLOGY CENTER, 2455 RIDGE ROAD, BERKELEY, CALIFORNIA 94709, USA ABSTRACT The postassembly, postrift evolution of passive margins is an essential element of global continental tectonics. Thermal and exhumational histories of passive margins are commonly attributed to a number of drivers, including uplift and erosional retreat of a rift-flank escarp- ment, intraplate fault reactivation, mantle-driven uplift, and erosional disequilibrium, yet in many cases, a specific factor may appear to dominate the history of a given passive margin. Here, we investigate the complex evolution of passive margins by quantifying exhumation patterns in western Scotland. We build upon the well-studied thermal evolution of the Scottish North Atlantic passive margin to test the importance of spatially heterogeneous factors in driving postorogenic burial and exhumation. Independent investigations of the cooling history from seven different field sites across the western Scottish Highlands using radiogenic apatite helium thermochronometry ([U-Th]/He; n = 14; ca. 31–363 Ma) and thermal modeling confirm that post-Caledonian heating and burial, as well as cooling and exhumation, must have been variable across relatively short distances (i.e., tens of kilometers).

THE GEOLOGY AND GEOCHEMISTRY OF THE METASEDIMENTARY ROCKS OF THE LOCH LAGGAN - UPPER STRATHSPEY AREA, INVERNESS-SHIRE Voi I CHUKWUEMEKA TONY OKONKWO A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philoso University of Keeie 1985. VOLUME ONE ABSTRACT 2 An area of 120Km extending from Loch Laggan to the upper reaches of the River Spey has been mapped in detail on a scale of 1:10,000. The metasediments cropping out in this area have been assigned to the Grampian Division and consist of varied assemblages of psammltes, semi-psammites and semi-pelites which can be subdivided into two 1ithostratigraphic successions separated by a tectonic discontinuity, the Gairbeinn Slide. Two 1 ithostratigraphic formations were recognised in the lower Glenshirra Succession, while four formations as well as a transitional 1ithostratigraphic unit were recognised in the overlying Corrieyairack Succession. Sedimentological analysis suggests that the sediments accumulated in environments varying from alluvial to marine and were mostly transported from the south to the north. The scattered calc-silicate pods and bands were produced by localised precipitation of carbonates during diagenesis.
