Loch Doon
In the 1930's a Dam was built that raised the water level of Loch Doon by nearly 30ft as part of The Galloway Hydro scheme.  As a result the water levels can vary considerably.  On the far shore on the left hand side the remains of a tramway can be seen.  This was constructed during WWI when Loch Doon was used as an Aerial gunnery training area.
