The Burn of the Vat, near Ballater, Deeside, 1871. Creator: Unknown
The Burn of the Vat, near Ballater, Deeside, [Scotland], 1871. The remarkable feature of Highland scenery which is shown in our Illustration is found in the Culbleen range of mountains, eight miles from Ballater, Deeside. The rocks here are 60 ft. high on one side, but lower on the other side; and the torrent or "burn, " as the Scotch people call it, pours through a narrow fissure where a mass of rock almost closes the ravine. The force of the confined waters has scooped out the lower part of the rock, forming a dome-shaped hollow from 16 to 24 yards wide. Near this spot is Loch Ceander, a small lake bordered with wood, and its surface covered with aquatic plants. Loch- nagar is distant a few miles from Ballater in another direction, and higher up the river is Balmoral Castle, the Queen's favourite abode, with Crathie village and Abergeldy, the Highland homes of others of the Royal family'. From "Illustrated London News", 1871
