Immediately from the water’s edge rose the mountain Cruachan on the opposite side of the lake; it is woody near the water and craggy above, with deep hollows on the surface.

St Fillan had associations with this district, and just hereabouts, where the roads diverge, was enacted a scene strange even in the annals of the Westland. More than usual mystery surrounds the burial-place of St Fillan. Highlands, Highways and Heroes, DC Cuthbertson

Overlooking Tarbert harbour, Loch Fyne, Argyll Dennis Hardley / www.scotphoto.com
‘We carried on to Tarbert, and by good luck it wass Tarbert Fair. Jeck threw open the boat for visitors, considerin’ the occasion. They came on board in droves to see a mystery ship, and Jeck put roond a hat in the aid of Brutain’s hardy sons. He gaithered seventeen shillin’s, and we stayed three days.’ Para Handy Tales, Neil Munro

Loch Shiel and Glenfinnan from the slopes of Beinn an Tuim
From this point Charles pursues his wilful path in the fierce glare of history. We know how on the morning of August 19, 1745, he came in a rowing boat up Loch Shiel and stepped ashore on this marshy foreshore of Glenfinnan.

‘We carried on to Tarbert, and by good luck it wass Tarbert Fair. Jeck threw open the boat for visitors, considerin’ the occasion. They came on board in droves to see a mystery ship, and Jeck put roond a hat in the aid of Brutain’s hardy sons. He gaithered seventeen shillin’s, and we stayed three days.’ Para Handy Tales, Neil Munro
