  Ardrishaig - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ardrishaig (pronounced "ar-drishig") is a lochside village at the southern (eastern) entrance to the Crinan Canal in west Scotland, in Argyll.
In the 1970s, the village was severely disfigured when the old row of houses and shops on the lochside of the main street were demolished to make way for a car park.This unfortunately has irreversibly changed the feel of this once pretty village.Most trading takes place now in its neighbouring town Lochgilphead.
John Smith, former Labour MP, was from Ardrishaig.
