Arisaig
Arisaig
and Morar: A History
Arisiag and Morar, Norse and Gaelic, the "river-mouth bay"
and the "great water", part of na garbh Chriochan
(The Rough Bounds), an area so rugged and desolate it was itself
known as the Highlands of the Highlands. From Borrodale (fort-dale)
to Kilmory (Maelrubha's chapel), from Druimindarroch (oak tree
ridge) to Eireagoraidh (shieling-corrie), the place-names echo
the story of the landscape. This book provides an accessible
account of the area.
