Old Photograph Glen Docherty Wester Ross Scotland


Old photograph of Glen Docherty in Wester Ross, Scotland. The loch is located between Loch Maree and Kinlochewe to the west and Loch a'Chroisg and Achnasheen to the east. Volcanic activity in this region ceased about 50 million years ago, after which the landscape was shaped by glaciation from about 1.8 million years ago to the end of the Great Ice Age about 10,000 years ago. The U-shaped glen of Glen Docherty is typical of a glen formed by the action of glaciers.
