Old Photograph Ledgowan Lodge Scotland

Old photograph of Ledgowan Lodge in Achnasheen in Wester Ross, Scotland. The village of Achnasheen is situated on the River Bran at the junction of two roads built by Scottish engineer Thomas Telford. Despite the small size of the village, Achnasheen is also the name of a postal district which covers several much larger communities including Kinlochewe, Poolewe and Laide. This dates from the time when the village railway station, built in 1870, was an important stop on the Kyle of Lochalsh Line, serving a large area of Wester Ross. The railway still operates but all freight and mail, and most passengers, now travel by road. Of interest to folks with ancestry, genealogy or Scottish Family Roots in Scotland who may wish to visit one day.
