Tarbert
Tarbert is a town in the west of Scotland, in the Argyll as well as Bute council area. It is built around East Loch Tarbert, an inlet of Loch Fyne, and extends over the isthmus which connects the peninsula of Kintyre to Knapdale as well as West Loch Tarbert. Tarbert had actually a recorded population of 1,338 in the 2001 Census. Tarbert has a long history both as a harbour and also as a tactical point player accessibility to Kintyre and the Inner Hebrides. The name Tarbert is the anglicised kind of the Gaelic word tairbeart, which essentially equates as "lugging throughout" and also describes the narrowest strip of land between 2 bodies of water over which products or entire boats can be carried (portage). In cargoes were discharged from vessels berthed in one loch, carried over the isthmus to the other loch, loaded onto vessels berthed there and shipped onward, allowing seafarers to avoid the sail around the Mull of Kintyre. Tarbert was anciently part of the Gaelic overkingdom of Dál Riata as well as shielded by three castles-- in the village centre, ahead of the West Loch, as well as on the south side of the East Loch. The mess up of the last of these castles, Tarbert Castle, still exists and dominates Tarbert's horizon. Around the year 1098 Magnus Barefoot, King of Norway, had his longship brought throughout the isthmus at Tarbert to signify his ownership of the Western Isles. In spite of its difference as a tactical fortress during the Middle Ages, Tarbert's socioeconomic success came throughout the Early Modern period, as the port turned into an angling town. At its elevation, the Loch Fyne herring fishery brought in numerous vessels to Tarbert.
