Old Photograph Shore Road Lamlash Island Of Arran Scotland
Old photograph of people, houses and cottages on Shore Road in Lamlash on the Island of Arran, Scotland. Lamlash is located in the southern half of the island, some three miles to the south of Brodick and five miles to the north of Whiting Bay. It is on the eastern side and sits on a bay facing the Holy Isle and the Firth of Clyde. In common with the rest of the island the village's main industry is tourism. In Lamlash the public sector is also an important employer. Fisheries is no longer important; although the Clyde was once the finest fishery in Europe it is now all but gone. There are strictly speaking no fish left in the Clyde for commercial capture and the few fishermen left are reduced to scraping the seabed for scallops and prawns. The village was the training place for No. 11 Scottish Commando during the early years of the Second World War.
