Old photograph of Laggan Dam in the Highlands of Scotland. This Scottish dam located on the River Spean south west of Loch Laggan. It is part of the Lochaber hydro-electric scheme. The structure was built by Balfour Beatty for the British Aluminium Company and construction was finished in 1934. Water from the dam is conveyed to Loch Treig through 3 miles of tunnel. From there, the waters are conveyed to a power house at Fort William via 15 feet diameter pipe 15 miles long. The dam can be found next to the A86 road from Fort William.
