Perthshire lochan?

Photograph taken by Don MacCaskill and image courtesy of Bridget MacCaskill, Strathyre. Don was based as Head Forester at Inverinan from about 1960 through to 1968 before transferring initially to Allean Forest and then Strathyre Forest in 1972.

Can anyone identify this lochan with its surrounding birch woodland?

The photo was taken at the Clunie Dam end of loch Tummel, just below Allean House / Queensview Hotel. The track is part of the old road on the north side of loch Tummel, flooded when the dam was constructed for the hydro electric schemes. My dad, George MacBeth, worked at Tummel forest while Don MacCaskill was there, and remembered him well Comment left on 25 February 2021 at 11:30 by Moira MacBeth
