Tarbet ((スコットランド・ゲール語:An Tairbeart), in full ') is a small village in Argyll and Bute, Scotland. Traditionally on the northern fringes of the historic County of Dunbarton, it is on the banks of Loch Lomond, and has a pier. It stands on an isthmus where Loch Long and Loch Lomond come close. The village of Arrochar stands at the head of Loch Long, at the other side of the isthmus. Arrochar and Tarbet railway station, on the West Highland Line, stands between the two villages. The village has a primary school (Arrochar Primary School), many hotels and bed and breakfasts, and a Tourist Information Centre. Its name comes from the Scottish Gaelic word for isthmus, although Tarbert is the more common anglicization, and Tarbat also exists. The village is formed around the junction of the A82 and A83 The area around Arrochar and Tarbet has become the scene of "squirrel wars". The red squirrel is resisting the offensive by the grey squirrel taking place across Great Britain, since there is a type of woodland they find more favourable than most.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Red squirrel )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=List of red squirrel locations )〕 Tarbet contains the Tarbet Hotel. ==References== 〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Tarbet, Argyll」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
