    Cúl a cnoic,

    I wondered the same when I was browsing the link you put up a couple weeks ago. From the picture, this looks like the clady river.... which is now Loch naCung. The lake was formed when the Clady was dammed for the hydro scheme.

    On your way towards LK just passed An Chuirt you can see the remains of an old bridge just as the lake begins to narrow. From the picture I'd say this could be it - I'm guessing though

    It certainly looks like its in this ballpark area. Next time I'm home I'll try and find out more. Alternatively it might show up on one of the old maps (pre 1953).
