HOMES in Connel and Appin could be among more than 280 dwellings in Argyll and Bute which will be swallowed by the sea within decades, a new study has warned.
A map produced by academics from Glasgow University as part of the study shows some of the dwellings at risk are also in Craobh Haven, Mull, Tiree, Islay, Jura, Campbeltown, Lochgilphead areas, and on Arran.
Argyll and Bute tops a league table of councils in the study most vulnerable to coastal erosion with 286 homes considered as high risk.
