Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: Causeway across Loch Gilp This view is taken from the shore adjacent to Clock Lodge. The legend behind the causeway, as reported on the website of Argyll & Bute Council, is as follows:
"Oral tradition tells us that one day while Sir John Powlett Orde (of Kilmory and North Uist) was passing through the village of Lochgilphead, a few boys held on to his carriage as it went along. To drive them off, Sir John flicked backwards with his whip, causing one of the boys to fall to his death beneath the wheels of the vehicle. The incident caused a lot of resentment in the village and to avoid abuse and assault from the villagers, Sir John had the causeway constructed across Loch Gilp, thus by-passing the village." |
