Loch Ewe, Wester Ross
Loch Ewe is a 10 mile long sea loch on the coast of Wester Ross lying between 2 peninsulas with the village of Poolewe at its head. The other notable village is Aultbea on the north east shore.
The River Ewe runs north west for just over 3 miles from Loch Maree and flows in to Loch Ewe at Poolewe.
During World War 2, convoys assembled in Loch Ewe before setting sail for Arctic Russia and the loch was heavily defended with artillery, anti-aircraft guns, mines and anti-submarine nets.
