River Moriston

2321:, a public body formed in 1943 to promote water power in the Highlands. They used profits from similar schemes in the southern Highlands to fund remote schemes such as this, in order to stimulate economic regeneration of the area. The catchment for the River Moriston, which includes Loch Loyne and Loch Cluanie, is 158 square miles (410 km). Loch Loyne is impounded by a dam, which is 1,800 feet (550 m) long and 72 feet (22 m) high. Most of the water released from the loch passes along a tunnel and into Loch Cluanie. A small amount of electricity is generated by an induction generator in the pipeline. The dam is a mass gravity dam, and construction was completed in 1956. The loch covers an area of 2.43 square miles (6.3 km), the surface level is 748 feet (228 m) above 2354:
ma Stac, all of which have had their capacity increased by the construction of small dams. Transfer from these lochs is controlled remotely from Glenmoriston power station. In addition, a system of aqueducts collects water from streams flowing into the Moriston downstream of Dundreggan Reservoir, and feeds some of their flow into Bhlaraidh Reservoir. Power generated by the stations is fed to Auchterewe, near Fort William, by overhead transmission lines, where there is a switching station and control centre. From Auchterewe, 132 kV lines distribute the power in several directions. Those over the Corrieyarrick Pass are very exposed, reaching a height of 2,507 feet (764 m) AOD, and high frequency pulses are injected into the lines to enable faults to be located.
2382:, turned northwards to cross Loch Loyne at a narrow point near the centre of the present loch, and continued to the north-west to the Cluanie Inn, at the western end of the present Loch Cluanie. When the level of Loch Loyne was raised, the crossing point was submerged, and a new A87 road was constructed, turning northwards from the old road near the eastern end of Loch Garry, running along part of the shore of Loch Loyne, and crossing over the River Loyne beyond the eastern end of the loch, to join the A887 Invermoriston to Kyle of Lochalsh road at Bun Loyne. An original bridge became visible in 2012 due to low levels of rainfall, and corresponding low levels in the loch. 31: 2338: 47: 2346:(91 m) below the ground, and is fed by a vertical shaft. Once the water has passed through the two 18 MW turbines, it flows into the mouth of the River Moriston through a tailrace tunnel which is 20 feet (6.1 m) in diameter and around 4 miles (6.4 km) long. The level of the reservoir is controlled by automatic sector gates. Compensation water for the river is discharged through another small power station, built into the dam. When the dam was constructed, a Borland type 2296:
three-arched structure was completed in 1823, to the design of Joseph Mitchell, who was Telford's principal inspector. The outside two arches span 48 feet (15 m) while the centre one, which is wider and higher, spans 55 feet (17 m). The is extensive forest on both banks of the river, which gradually widens as it becomes part of Dundreggan Reservoir. A dam impounds the water at its eastern end, and a hydro-electric power station is located on the south bank close to the dam.
2334:(90 m) and the station can generate 20 MW. There is also a smaller generator in the station, which can discharge compensation water to the river when the full capacity of the station is not required. In addition to the main supply from Loch Cluanie, water from the upper reaches of the River Doe and its tributaries is captured and fed into a branch tunnel, where it can either be used by the turbine directly, or can be fed into Loch Cluanie for later use. 2309:
1808-1811, but is thought to date from the mid-18th century. A replacement bridge was built in 1933, slightly further downstream. It consists of a single 90-foot (27 m) concrete span with a small flood arch, and was designed by Mears and Carcus-Wilson. Below the newer bridge is a nine-sided gazebo, perched on a rocky outcrop overlooking the river. It dates from the early 19th century. Shortly afterwards, the river discharges into Loch Ness.
2325:(AOD), and it is relatively shallow. The Cluanie dam is also a mass gravity dam, 2,215 feet (675 m) long and 133 feet (41 m) high. Compensation water for the River Moriston flows through a small power station located at the base of the dam. Both the Loyne dam and the Cluanie dam were built using ground blast furnace slag, which replaced 70 percent of the cement which would otherwise have been used, reducing the amount of 1828: 492: 338: 307: 3533: 1999: 1967: 1871: 1160: 1038: 902: 716: 616: 2074: 2040: 2033: 1919: 1702: 1418: 1126: 1092: 936: 888: 791: 668: 661: 442: 415: 2805: 2125: 1750: 1652: 1643: 1595: 1543: 1536: 1480: 1466: 1384: 1289: 1248: 422: 408: 401: 381: 2047: 2006: 1983: 1926: 1515: 1201: 1167: 1119: 826: 764: 757: 549: 298: 279: 2188: 2181: 2174: 2167: 2160: 2153: 1991: 1974: 1933: 1878: 1757: 1575: 1568: 1473: 1296: 1153: 1133: 1072: 1052: 1045: 1004: 970: 909: 868: 861: 709: 702: 641: 625: 589: 2133: 2117: 2108: 2081: 1912: 1885: 1864: 1836: 1819: 1812: 1805: 1778: 1771: 1764: 1730: 1723: 1716: 1709: 1682: 1675: 1668: 1623: 1616: 1609: 1560: 1552: 1507: 1497: 1489: 1439: 1432: 1425: 1411: 1391: 1377: 1370: 1363: 1344: 1337: 1330: 1323: 1303: 1282: 1275: 1255: 1241: 1234: 1227: 1208: 1194: 1187: 1018: 1011: 984: 950: 847: 818: 808: 800: 784: 743: 609: 575: 568: 535: 528: 500: 483: 456: 449: 374: 354: 346: 315: 2067: 2026: 1960: 1905: 1857: 1798: 1660: 1602: 977: 943: 895: 854: 750: 723: 675: 633: 582: 542: 508: 463: 3545: 2762: 54: 2353:
A third power station on the River Moriston system was constructed in 1962. The Livishie station generates 15 MW, and a head of 850 feet (259 m) is provided by the Bhlaraidh Reservoir. This acts as a headpool, but its water is supplemented by supplies from Loch a Chrathaich, Loch Laith and Loch

From Loch Cluanie, water is fed to a power station at Ceannacroc through a tunnel and pressure shaft. The power station was built underground and was one of the first underground stations to be constructed in the country, when it was completed in 1956. This arrangement provides a head of 300 feet
