Loch Sguod

Loch Squod is a small remote freshwater hill loch located approximately 5 miles north-by-northwest of Poolewe and is directly west of the Isle of Ewe in Wester Ross, Scotland. Directly south is the remote hamlet of Inverasdale.

Geography

Loch Squod is located at the base of the flat Inverasdale Peatlands plain located on the eastern and southern side of the Melvaig Peninsula. The peatlands are a site of special scientific interest. It is bounded by the Loch Maree Fault that forms a ridge to the west and Loch Ewe to the east. The loch drains north-east via the Uidh Chrò burn into Firemore beach and sea loch, Loch Ewe.
