Lochalsh Pipes are based in the beautiful area of Lochalsh in the Scottish West Highlands. Ross Calderwood, the pipemaker, has been playing Highland Bagpipes since the age of eight and has a great depth of knowledge of the history and diversity of bagpipes. His smallpipes, border pipes and reelpipe designs are based on the large archive of historical bagpipes that are kept in the various museums in Scotland and England.
