Old Photograph Crofters Cottage Rannoch Highland Perthshire Scotland

Old photograph of a Crofters Cottage at Bridge of Gaur in Rannoch, Highland Perthshire, Scotland. This hamlet was formerly, briefly, called Georgetown, as the redcoat barracks of Jacobite Rising of 1745 were then known, then known as Bridge of Rannoch, or Bridge of Gaur, after the bridge on the River Gaur. The River Gaur is the main tributary at the west end of Loch Rannoch, the extreme end of the River Tummel system. In order to reach this area salmon have to pass Pitlochry Dam, Clunie Dam, Dunalastair Dam, Rannoch Weir and Gaur Dam as well as negotiating several large lochs.
