Old Photograph Gleann an Fiodh Scotland

Old photograph of Gleann an Fiodh near Ballachulish, Lochaber, Scotland. The element Fiodh. meaning wood or timber, in its name suggests that the glen was historically known for its forest cover, a common feature in Gaelic place-names that describe the natural environment. This reflects an era when the Highlands were more extensively forested than they are today.
