Mallaig

Mallaig on the west coast of the Highlands of Scotland, and the local railway station is the terminus of the West Highland railway line. The village of Mallaig was founded in the 1840s, when Lord Lovat, owner of North Morar Estate, divided up the farm of Mallaigvaig into seventeen parcels of land and encouraged his tenants to move to the western part of the peninsula and turn to fishing as a way of life.
