Lochslin (Scottish Gaelic: Loch Slinn) is a small hamlet, situated northeast of the fresh water loch, Loch Eye in Tain, Ross-shire, Scottish Highlands and is in the Scottish council area of Highland. Originally a loch that dried up, the loch survives in name only.[1] Close to the village is the ancient ruin of Lochslin Castle.[1]
