A small lake on the grazing of Druimachoish and west end of Fuar Mhonaidh Sign. [Signification] "The blood loch"

Guide to Oban 1897 -
When Loch Etive Head is reached, passengers are taken ashore from the Ossian s.s. in small boats. The coaches stand ready, and start immediately their seats- are occupied. The dwelling-house beyond the head of the loch is Druimachoish (Mr. Greaves). The vehicles have not proceeded far, when the admonition, " The gentlemen will walk, please," is the first indication of the hilly nature of the road' up Glen Etive. The scenery of the glen is wildly romantic. There are few houses. The " Sunny Peak " of Beinn Ceitleir 2,897 feet, on the right near Dalness will attract attention. The River Etive, which flows in the hollow, forms two series of beautiful falls—first, a little below, and second, a little- above Dalness farm.1
