Beauly
Beauly is a town in the Kilmorack Parish of the Scottish County of Inverness, on the River Beauly, 10 miles (16 km) west of Inverness by the Far North train line. The town is now within the Highland council location. The land around Beauly is abundant - historically corn was grown thoroughly as well as much more recently fruit has actually successfully been farmed. The town traditionally sold coal, hardwood, lime, grain and fish. In January 2010, the Scottish government accepted questionable plans for a high-voltage line upgrade that will certainly start in Beauly and also end in Denny, Falkirk. The brand-new high-voltage line, part of a strategy to lug electrical power created by wind farms on the Western Isles, was called "one of the most considerable grid facilities job in a generation" by Jim Mather MSP. The 220-kilometre (140 mi) line will certainly contain a network of 600 pylons, varying in height from 42 to 65 metres (138 to 213 ft). The first part of the transmission circuit (Beauly to Fort Augustus) was switched on in July 2013. The population of Beauly was 1,126 in 1991, 1,283 in 2001 and 1,365 in 2011.
