Ullapool

From Biocrawler, the free encyclopedia.

Ullapool is a small town in the County of Ross-Shire in the western Scottish Highlands. Despite its small size, it is the largest settlement for many miles around.

Ullapool was founded in 1788 as a herring port, on the east shore of Loch Broom. The harbour is still the centre of the town, used as a fishing port, yachting haven and ferry port with boats to Stornoway in the Outer Hebrides. The town also boasts a small museum, an arts centre, a swimming pool and plenty of pubs, and is a centre for walkers and other holidaymakers in the area. Ullapool also has its own radio station called Loch Broom FM on 102.2pl:Ullapool
