Onich (/ˈoʊnɪx/;[1] Gaelic: Omhanaich, 'abounding in froth, frothy place'), also spelled Ounich, is a village in the historic county of Inverness-shire on the east shore of Loch Linnhe, Scotland and, together with North Ballachulish at the entrance to Loch Leven, forms Nether Lochaber.
St Bride’s Church was built in 1874 by the Edinburgh architect John Garden Brown.[2][3] Onich to North Ballachulish Woods forms a Special Area of Conservation because of its old sessile oak woods with Ilex and Blechnum.[4]
