It lies {{convert|5|mi|km|abbr=on}} south west of Kirkwall on cultivated land between two hills. There is a small ({{convert|37|m|ft|abbr=on}} by {{convert|19|m|ft|abbr=on}}) turf covered islet known as the Groundwater of Holm just off the eastern shore of the loch. It shows traces in stone of an oval structure and small projecting pier.[2] The loch is popular for trout fishing and the Orkney Trout Fishing Association has a hatchery at the Kirbister pumphouse [3] on the loch edge. Mill Burn, the southerly outflow from the loch, was used to power the 18th century Kirbister Mill.[4] The loch was surveyed[1] in 1903 by T.N. Johnston and R.C. Marshall and later charted [5] as part of Sir John Murray's The Bathymetrical Survey of Fresh-Water Lochs of Scotland 1897-1909.[6] References1. ^1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 {{cite web |url=http://maps.nls.uk/bathymetric/text.cfm?cid=37839|title=Bathymetrical Survey of the Fresh-Water Lochs of Scotland, 1897-1909, Lochs of Orkney|author= |date=|website=National Library of Scotland|publisher=|accessdate=2013-08-11}} {{Orkney-geo-stub}}2. ^1 {{cite web |url=http://canmore.rcahms.gov.uk/en/site/1952/details/loch+of+kirbister/|title=Loch of Kirbister - Groundwater of Holm|author= |date=|website=Canmore|publisher=RCAHMS|accessdate=2013-08-11}} 3. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.orkneytroutfishing.co.uk/hatchery/hatchery.html|title=New trout hatchery at Kirbister|author= |date=|website=Orkney Trout Fishing Association|publisher=OTFA|accessdate=2013-08-11}} 4. ^{{cite web |url=http://canmore.rcahms.gov.uk/en/site/1946/details/kirbister+mill/|title=Kirbister Mill|author= |date=|website=Canmore|publisher=RCAHMS|accessdate=2013-08-11}} 5. ^{{cite web|url=http://maps.nls.uk/bathymetric/view/index.cfm?sid=74400508 |title=Muckle & Peerie Waters; Loch of Isbister; Loch of Sabiston; Loch of Kirbister; Loch of Tankerness (Vol. 6, Plates 91 & 92) - Bathymetrical Survey, 1897-1909 - National Library of Scotland |website= National Library of Scotland|date= |accessdate=2013-08-11}} 6. ^{{cite book |last1=Murray|first1=John|authorlink1=John Murray (oceanographer)|last2=Pullar|first2=Laurence|authorlink2=|title=Bathymetrical Survey of Fresh-Water Lochs of Scotland during the years 1897 to 1909: report on scientific results|url= http://maps.nls.uk/bathymetric/text.cfm?seq=1|accessdate= 24 July 2013|year=1910 |publisher=|location=Edinburgh |isbn= |volume=|page=}} 3 : Lochs of Orkney|Freshwater lochs of Scotland|Lakes of Orkney |
