Old Photograph Kytra Lock Scotland

Old photograph of Kytra Lock on the Caledonian Canal near Fort Augustus and Loch Ness, Scotland. The Caledonian Canal connects the Scottish east coast at Inverness with the west coast at Corpach near Fort William. The canal was constructed in the early nineteenth century by Scottish engineer Thomas Telford. Thomas was a Scottish civil engineer, architect and stonemason, and a noted road, bridge and canal builder. After establishing himself as an engineer of road and canal projects in Shropshire, he designed numerous infrastructure projects in his native Scotland, as well as harbours and tunnels.
