Описание: Tour Scotland wee video of old photographs of Kylesku, Scottish Gaelic: An Caolas Cumhang, a small, remote fishing hamlet in Sutherland in the Scottish Highlands. Until 1984, it was the site of a free ferry. It is located where Loch Glencoul and Loch Gleann Dubh join to form a sea passage Loch a' Chàirn Bhàin which links to Eddrachillis Bay. There was a passenger ferry, a rowing boat, in the early 19th century. Commercial traffic mainly comprised cattle on their way to central Scotland, and they had to swim across. Over the years, various ferries came and went, and small car-carrying ferries first appeared between the wars. The Kylesku Ferry was unusual in being free for much of its life. The ferry service became known as a dreaded bottleneck on the route north and south and was replaced by a bridge in 1984. This was opened by the Queen. It is located where Loch Glencoul and Loch Gleann Dubh join to form a sea passage Loch a' Chàirn Bhàin which links to Eddrachillis Bay.
