Description: | Oblique aerial photograph of Ben Vorlich and Inveruglas, Loch Lomond. Looking north-west. The prominent hill is Ben Vorlich, composed of Dalradian Beinn Bheula schists. The Sloy hydro-electric scheme is well seen with the upper Loch Sloy Reservoir supplying the power station at Inveruglas by Loch Lomond. Sloy dam is a gravity - section concrete buttress dam - one of the earliest hydro-electric schemes to be built in the post-1945 era. |
