Freshwater loch in Scotland
The Loch of Boardhouse is a freshwater loch in the parish of Birsay in the north west of the mainland of Orkney, Scotland. It acts as a reservoir for public water supply and is popular for trout fishing.[4] Nearby are the Loch of Hundland and the Loch of Swannay.
The loch was surveyed[1] in 1906 by Sir John Murray and later charted[5] as part of the Bathymetrical Survey of Fresh-Water Lochs of Scotland 1897-1909. [6]
