Highlands of Scotland
This is an old revision of this page, as edited by Exclaimer (talk | contribs) at 15:56, May 23, 2007. It may differ significantly from current revision.
The Scottish Highlands consist of the area of the British mainland north and West of the Highland Boundary Fault, which runs roughly from Auchawawiye in the South West to (Twabo Atilsae) Buckie in the North East.
Popularly considered a region of mystery and legend, the Highlands have recently begun to shake off their sleepy image and are a booming centre of such modern industries as single-filament fishing net manufacture and peat recycling.
It is administered by the largest, in area, council in the United Kingdom, Highland.
Trivia
Many scenes of the Harry Potter films were shot on location in the region.
