Old Photograph Bridge Ballanoch Scotland

Old photograph of the bridge and cottages at Bellanoch located on the South West side of the Crinan Canal, Argyll, Scotland. The 9 mile long Crinan Canal connects the village of Ardrishaig on Loch Gilp with the Sound of Jura, providing a navigable route between the Clyde and the Inner Hebrides. The canal was originally built for commercial sailing vessels and, later, Clyde puffers to travel between the industrialized region around Glasgow to the West Highland villages and islands. Now it is largely used by leisure craft.
