On the windswept hills at the south end of Arran a new vision is rising on the site of the last legal distillery, which closed there 180 years ago.
The new £10 million Isle of Arran distillery may not look much yet, but in a few short months all that will have changed.
The distillery will produce a heavily peated malt whisky, in contrast to the present Lochranza whisky, but in keeping with the traditions of the stills at the south end of the island in the 18th and 19th century.
