Tour Scotland short 4K Autumn travel video clip of a Scotsman wearing a kilt and sporran and walking by Loch Arklet on ancestry, genealogy, history visit and trip to the Trossachs, Britain, United Kingdom. The historic Corrie Arklet Farm, located on the loch's shore, is where the famous outlaw Rob Roy MacGregor was married. During his lifetime, the area was a strategic landscape where MacGregor would have been active, and his family had ties to the surrounding region. The loch was originally created as a reservoir in 1855 to provide water for Glasgow's increasing population and industrial needs. A dam was built across the River Arklet to create the reservoir. This was part of a much larger, ambitious water supply system for the city. The scheme was expanded over time, with a major project completed around 1914 to increase the water supply by connecting the loch to Loch Katrine. Autumn leaf color or colour is a phenomenon that affects the normally green leaves of many deciduous trees and shrubs by which they take on, during a few weeks in the Autumn season, various shades of red, yellow, purple, black, orange, pink, magenta, blue and brown. The phenomenon is commonly called autumn colours or autumn foliage in British English and fall colors, fall foliage or simply foliage in American.
