Muir Of Ord
Muir of Ord is a town in the Highlands of Scotland. It is situated near the western border of the Black Isle, about 9 miles (14 km) west of the city of Inverness and 5 1/2 miles (9 km) south of Dingwall. The town has a population of 2,690 and rests 35 metres (115 feet) above water level. Called Tarradale till 1862, historically access to the town was restricted by the natural obstacles of the River Beauly and also the River Conon. This changed in 1814 with the building of the Conon Bridge. Cattle chauffeurs used the brand-new courses to carry animals and markets were set up in 1820 close to where the village currently exists. In 1835 whisky distilling operations were lawfully given in the town and also by 1885 the Mill of Ord created 80,000 imperial gallons (360,000 l) each year. The village expanded extensively in the 19th century due to the establishment of the distillery as well as items sectors.
