Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Obelisk commemorating a visit by Queen Victoria in 1844 When Queen Victoria saw the Linn of Tummel, in MDCCCXLIV, the Tummel plunged a considerable height to join the River Garry. The dam at Pitlochry created Loch Faskally but reduced the height of this fall. The falls were originally so high that salmon were not able to jump up them and a very early example of a fish-pass was created so the salmon could bypass the falls. This fish-pass emerges beside the obelisk.
