Old Photograph Single Track Road Flowerdale Scotland

Old photograph of a fishing boat by the single track road to Flowerdale, Gairloch, Scotland. These lands have been in the hands of the Clan Mackenzie of Gairloch for hundreds of years. Gairloch is the final resting place of the renowned Gaelic bard Uilleam Ros or William Ross, born 1762, died 1791, known as the Gairloch bard. Ross was born in Broadford on Isle of Skye and travelled extensively throughout the Western Isles, becoming known for his knowledge of different varieties of Gaelic. He composed several famous romantic poems attempting to win the affection of Marion Ross of Stornoway, who apparently never responded to his attentions. Perhaps the most famous of these is Feasgar Luain. Ross settled in the Gairloch are and became a schoolmaster, and died at the age of 28 in Badachro. It is popularly believed that he died of a broken heart.
