ID:QZP40_CARD_2647DESCRIPTION:Luib is situated on the southern shore of Loch Ainort, on a long bend in the main Kyleakin to Portree road. Indeed the name is derived from the Gaelic for a bend or corner. Even after World War II, many of the thatched houses pictured remained intact, and the village was popular with visitors for that reason. Sadly only a couple remain, the rest being slated, to better deal with inclement weather. Glas Bheinn Mhor, at 570m rises in the background.PLACENAME:LuibDISTRICT:SkyeOLD COUNTY/PARISH:INVERNESS: StrathPERIOD:1900s; 1910sSOURCE:Highland LibrariesCOLLECTION:Highland Libraries' Postcard CollectionAsset ID:34550KEYWORDS:
