Falls of Halladale
The Falls of Halladale was a four-masted iron-hulled barque that was built in 1886 for the long-distance bulk carrier trade. Her dimensions were 83.87m x 12.64m x 7.23m and she displaced and . Built for the Falls Line (Wright, Breakenridge & Co., Glasgow, Scotland) at the shipyard of Russell & Co., Greenock on the River Clyde, she was named after a waterfall on the Halladale River in the Caithness district of Scotland. The ship's design was advanced for her time, incorporating features that improved crew safety and efficiency such as elevated bridges to allow the crew to move between forward and aft in relative safety during heavy seas.

The "Falls of Halladale" was the seventh vessel in a series of eight similar iron-hulled sailing ships, all built by Russell & Co and all named after waterfalls in Scotland. The "Falls of Halladale" was preceded by the "Falls of Clyde" (1878), the "Falls of Bruar" (1879), the "Falls of Dee" (1882), the "Falls of Afton" (1882), the "Falls of Foyers" (1883) and the "Falls of Earn" (1884). The "Falls of Halladale" was followed by a sister ship, the "Falls of Garry" (1886). The "Falls of Clyde" is afloat today and is a major attraction at the Hawaii Maritime Center in Honolulu.
