"There is confusion as to the precise location of Scotland's first blast furnace although it was
almost certainly beside Loch Maree, in Wester Ross. Macadam and Dixon listed three possible
sites. These were A Cheardach Ruadh (Red Smiddy), near Poolewe; Furnace, near Letterewe;
and Fasagh, at the south end of the loch."
