Glen Orchy Road
GLEN ORCHY is the beautiful valley, twelve miles long, in which the River Orchy
runs between Bridge of Orchy and Dalmally.
There were at least ten settlements in the Glen in 1792, with 152 people, when the Minister of the Parish carried out a census. Nowadays only one of these is a permanent home, one name has been used for a later house, with permanent residents, three are used for holiday places, and the rest are either ruins or have disappeared. There are two recent properties, and the population of the Glen is about ten.
