Postcard - black and white, J.B. White Ltd, In the Wilds of Rosshire - The Winding Road Through the Mountains of Glen Docherty to the Loch Maree
Volcanic activity in this region ceased about 50 million years ago, after which the landscape was shaped by glaciation from about 1.8 million years ago to the end of the Great Ice Age about 10,000 years ago. The U-shaped glen of Glen Docherty is typical of a glen formed by the action of glaciers. (wikipedia)Black and white photographic postcard showing a road running between Glen Docherty and Loch Maree.
