Loch Ryan
Location an geography
Loch Ryan is orientatit on a north-sooth axis, iths mooth leukin northwart intil the North Atlantic an the Firth o Clyde, an the toun o Stranrawer sittin on its soothren shores. The loch is boondit bi the Rhinns o Gallowa peninsula on its wastren side an the Scots laundmass in the east (comprisin o Gallowa an Sooth Ayrshire), the northren pynts o the loch is Milleur Pynt and Finnarts Pynt. The loch itsel is aboot 8 mile lang fae north tae sooth, an aboot 3 mile wide at its widest pynt. Nearby roads include the A77 road in the east an the A718 road in the wast. The Loch Ryan basin as it is seen the day formt as an ootcome o geological an glacial acteevity. The first speal o acteevity occurt durin the Paleozoic era, wi twa speals o change. Firstly, durin the Devonian speal (360 tae 416 million year syne) the laund in this aurie throu-cam a series o shearin events that conseederable altert its shape, formin a basin. Syne, durin the Permian speal (250 tae 300 million year syne) this basin fillt up wi grummels that wis makkit compact tae form saft saundstanes. At this pynt in time the aurie wad hae been positiont aroond the equator an wad form a pairt o the Pangaea supercontinent. The seicont speal o acteevity was as an ootcome o a rowth o glacial episodes durin the Quaternary speal, fae 2 million year syne up until the last glaciers retreatit 10,000 year syne.
As aw o northren Europe throu-cam a rowth o ice ages, glacier formation creatit ice flowes an ice sheets. The erosive force o the ice muived across the laund, remuivin the saft saundstane an leavin ahint the haurder rocks. Whan the ice sheet meltit wi the risin temperaturs 10,000 year syne the basin wis unkivert an wis fluidit bi the sea, formin the loch that is seen the day.
Syne the end o the last ice age the sea haes conteenaed tae change the loch by erosion an deposition. The loch haes a saundbank on its wastren shores cried 'The Scaur'. This bank, juist sooth o the veelage o Kirkcoam, is an important breedin grund for tarns.

Loch Ryan
History an uissage
In early 1307 at the beginnin o Robert the Bruce's campaign in the Wars o Scots Unthirldom he sent twa forces tae attempt tae win control o soothwast Scotland. Ae force, led bi his twa brithers, conseestin o aichteen gaileys, laundit in the loch. In the Battle o Loch Ryan, thay wis immediate owerwhalmt bi local forces, led bi Dungal MacDouall that wis an uphaud o the Comyns.
The loch wad hae been uised historical for tradeetional maritime acteevitys, includin fishin. The Statistical Accounts of Scotland 1791-99 records:
The later Account o 1834-45 eiks on this issue, as it states:
A lichthoose wis built at Cairn Pynt in 1847 at the northren end o the veelage o The Cairn. In 1849 the main link tae Northren Ireland wis muived fae Portpaitrick tae Stranrawer in Loch Ryan. The raisons for this muive wis the increasin tonnages o the boats operatin the route that wis mair affectit tae hersh storms whan anchort at the exposed Portpaitrick herbour on the Rhinns coast. The caumer saufer watters o the loch alloued lairger ships tae traivel the route as demand increased.
Seicont Warld War
Durin Warld War II the loch wis busy wi wartime acteevity. The Cairn becam "No. 2 Military Port", an important seicontary lairge-scale port faceelity for uiss shoud faceelitys on the River Mersey an River Clyde become unavailable acause o enemy bombin. Biggin o port faceelitys begoud in 1941 an twa lairge piers, the North Deep an the South Deep, service't bi a dedicatit railwey line, wis completit bi 1943. A tot o 1.5 mile o quayside wis available, awtho the faceeltys wis niver uised tae thair full capacity as the Clyde an the Mersey niver received the tak-dounin bomb daimage that wis feart.
The herbour wis uised as an import pynt for troups comin fae the US efter 1942. Anely ane o the twa piers staunds the day yet, an it isna uisable acause o the puir condeetion o the wuiden pauls (the pier haesna been uised syne a smaw section clytit wi tragic consequences in the 1990s). Wi the U-boat threit in the Atlantic takkin a hivy dishort on marchand shippin the aurie becam an important centre for anti-U-boat operations. Fleein boats operatit fae the loch tae pertect allied shippin makkin its wey tae Liverpuil or Glesga aither via the Sheuch or the Firth o Clyde. Thare wis twa RAF stations on the loch, RAF Wig Bay operatin fae Wig Bay near Kirkcoam, an RAF Stranraer operatin fae the town o Stranrawer.
Juist north o The Cairn is whit leuks like a wheen o concrete 'boats' restin on the shore - thir anes an aw is a legacy o the Seicont Warld War. Thay is 'Beetles' fae the Mulberry harbour project. The beetle pontoons wis uised tae haud up the 'Whale' roadwey sections, wi fower o the 'whales' bein built at The Cairn. Wi easy aiccess til the North Atlantic, Loch Ryan wis uised as the surrender destination for the U-boats that wis oot in the Atlantic in 1945 whan the hosteelitys ceased. The U-boats an thair crews wis haudit at The Cairn, afore the boats wis hinderly towed oot intil the Atlantic an sunk (Operation Deadlight). Ither wartime acteevity on the loch includit biggin o target rafts made oot o wuid an cork, that wis built in Stranrawer syne fleetit oot on the loch an roond the Rhinns o Gallowa tae thair poseetions in Luice Bay for bombin practice (operatin oot o RAF West Freugh). The loch wis uised bi Winston Churchill whan he depairtit fae Stranrawer in a Boeing Flying Boat on 25 Juin 1942 whan makkin his seicont veesit o the war til the USA.
The comic Tony Hancock haed a connection wi Air Sea Rescue durin Warld War II. He listit wi the Ryal Air Force on 7 September 1942 an volunteert for aircrew bit misgied wi his eesicht. He wis syne transfert til the RAF Regiment an efter twa month he was redirectit til the transit office in Blackpool whaur he wis gien the opportuinity tae train as a wireless operator. He misgied on a fower-wirds-a-meenit test an wis syne postit tae Stranrawer.
RAF Wig Bay is situatit 5 mile north o Stranrawer on the wast shore o Loch Ryan an it was tae here that Hancock was assignt til the Marine Craft Section. His main duties seem tae hae been the keepin o a heap o coal an a byler hoose. Sae he made the deceesion tae endou himsel wi the teetle o "Fuel Controller" an hung a sign stencilt bi himsel tae that effect on the door o his bothy. He was responsible an aw for the lichtin o the fires in the Nissen huts.
Ship brakkin faceelity
Follaein thair reteerin fae service in 1972 an 1979 respectively, baith the HMS Eagle an HMS Ark Royal wis takken tae The Cairn sae as tae be scrappit.
HMS Eagle wis takken unner towe fae HMNB Devonport in October 1978, an wis follaed bi her sister HMS Ark Royal in Sepetember 1980.
The ship brakkin faceelity in Loch Ryan pat by a rowth o umwhile naval boats, rangin fae frigates an submarines tae aircraft carriers.
Nouadays
The day the loch serves as an important location for the ferry link tae Northren Ireland, respresentin the shortest crossin distance atween Breetain an Ireland. The port acteevity haes increased substantious syne the route first stairtit operatin oot o the loch in 1849. Thare is praisently a tot o 4 ordinar RORO ferrys atween twa ferry companys - Stena Line an P&O Ferries.
On 21 November 2011, Stena Line flittit thair ferry service tae Belfast til a location north o The Cairn Veelage. Loch Ryan Port is noo served bi 2 Superfast Conventional ferrys replacin HSS Fastcraft and auld tonnage Stena Caledonia an Stena Navigator. MS Stena Superfast VII an MS Stena Superfast VIII noo complete the crossin fae Loch Ryan Port tae Belfast in 2 oor 15 meenit. P&O, operatin fae The Cairn, rin 2 ordinar ferrys, MV European Causeway an MV European Highlander. The investment in new port faceelitys at The Cairn gies an ashuirance til the futur o the Sheuch route. It will lead an aw tae futur potential smaw boat maritime development at the soothren end o the loch, that will be completely free fae lairge an raiglar ferry traffeck. The loch awready sees smaw boat uissage, wi the Loch Ryan Sailing Club operatin fae Wig Bay, and Stranraer Marina herbour aside the West Pier.
Atween 1992 an 1999 Sea Containers operatit the SeaCat fast ferry on the Stranrawer-Belfast route. Thay syne flittit tae The Truin, afore hinderly endin the service awthegither in 2005. While ordinar ferries (traivelin at aboot 15 knot) hae wrocht the route for mony decades the fast ferries wis capable o greater speeds (aroond 40 knot).
